Cupertino 95014
August 5, 2017
These 5 trees are planted on a 4' high, 4' deep, 28' long area retained by a 4' cinder
block wall. Along the back border of this area is a fence at the property line. The cinder
block wall has several cracks in it which I'm certain are caused by the roots of these
trees. Large{5" - 7") pine cones are falling into the neighboring yard. This neighbor was
quite upset and complained to me today about these pine cones and said they were
coming through an awning they had erected to deflect them (and indicated he wanted
the trees removed as soon as possible). If a person were to be struck in the face by one
of these pine cones it could cause a very serious injury (and undoubtedly legal
repercussions).
