Consider it your tree hanging over into your neighbors yard. What would you do?

IMO The Villages should acknowledge that this tree is in the wrong spot, and take it out. Even if they didn't actually plant it themselves, they shouldn't have put a wall, yard, and house too close to it.

I think you may be skirting the issue, GG. For one thing, the area (Bridgeport at Miona) is not old enough for that tree to have been an acorn and now be that big. It was either planted there or the wall was put too close to the tree. For another thing, Billethekid has already contacted the property agency of the developer, and was told essentially it is his problem. I don't hate/bash the developer or begrudge the family their financial success, but I do think there are areas where they could do things for the residents that wouldn't break the bank. And I believe this is one of them.

I will now change the subject because I am really not a fan of live oak trees except when they are far away from people's homes. Then they are beautiful, like all that area near the intersection of Buena Vista and Stillwater trail. It is absolutely beautiful to see the live oaks grow there.

If I were Billethekid, I would take this higher up in the organization. There are extenuating circumstances. That's it, I'm done! On to a poop thread.

There are many...and I do mean MANY...trees in TV that could be argued to be in a poor location. But so many things come into play. How long has it been there. Has it been maintained properly during growth years. Many more. I’m not totally disagreeing with what your saying...especially the part I quoted. I’m only somewhat disagreeing with the general idea that any developer is automatically deemed responsible for somehow fixing any tree that a homeowner believes to be a problem. I had two palm trees that were growing into a mature oak on my lot. They had to go. But I’m sure they looked nice when they were young and the oak tree not as large. Call it poor landscaping foresight if you wish. But it’s done so commonly I would never try to convince any developer that something they planted ages ago was their responsibility to remove. Proper trimming during early growth years might have prevented the problem. I had the palms removed myself. Last edited by Polar Bear; 12-13-2019 at 10:38 PM. |

I am reading that the tree was not planted propery - writen by people who have not seen the tree. C'mon now.
Take a drive round any town. Lots of big trees hanging over property lines. Not a problem at all unless someone sees it as an invasion of their airspace. |
