civic13 civic13 Post Master Registered: 04/18/01 Posts: 2654 Loc: You Know	A neighbour of my mother has a big ass tree in the corner or their backyard which is close to a fence separating the two properties. Part of the tree fell yesterday damaging the fence and is partially in my mother’s backyard. Who’s responsible for the clean up and repair of the fence?

However if something happens to his side of the tree (ie it dies) and he can prove it had something to do with your actions then you're in trouble. I'm sure 311 can answer your questions easily, they deal with this type of stuff everyday.

Without permit the owner couldn't take it down, which your mom likely wouldn't want anyway. Without access to your yard the owner couldn't be trimming the tree. The owner of the house didn't plant the tree, it was there, and could have been on mom's side. I'm with loudsubz.

She's gonna and see if he's home as no one answered the door yesterday. She could care less about the tree. She wants it gone cuz she's always worried about it falling on the house. _________________________
