    T1 - Red Oak - The tree is heavily overgrown and is almost touching the house. It is hanging over the road. Branches continuously fall on vehicles parked in the drive way. The tree is also pulling up the driveway, which makes it harder to get in and out of the drive! If the tree would not be considered for removal it needs a cut back ASAP. Please see the annotated photo.
