Reply to comment by Dmoored4 in Trees Being Removed by Daydreaming_Bitch

As far as I could tell it was a perfect live tree, I'm no expert though. The city called me back and said it was a city tree and they decided to remove it. When I questioned why they originally said someone reported it as dead the lady said "I'm just telling you what they told me."

The tree was probably likely diseased. I'm in South Orange and about 2 years ago 3 trees on our sidewalk area (we're on a corner) were removed because of some sort of disease.

We do have plenty of oak trees in our yard that are huge and might be diseased that we'll have to someday remove.

From what I've seen based on local discussions in Facebook towns are generally only removing trees for good reason, but they're never properly communicating that reason.
