RE: Removal of tree
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Lounsberry,

It has been brought to our attention there is a dead tree on your property in the rear yard that has been
determined to be a hazard.
This tree was inspected by Mark Hodson, Public Works Superintendent. He determined the tree is dead or dying
from disease and should be removed for safety and sanitation. The Blair Municipal Code Section 6 -312 states
"all trees and shrubs within the City of Blair shall be pruned or removed when such trees or shrubs constitute a
hazard to life and property, or harbor insects or diseases or are damaged to the extent they constitute a threat to
other trees or shrubs, persons or property within the City. Enclosed please find a copy of the city ordinance for
your reference.
Therefore, based on the above information, you are hereby notified to remove this tree or have the tree removed
by a registered tree contractor. Please contact our office within (15) days to discuss this matter and confirm you
are able to remove this violation within (60) days. If you are unable to remove this tree, the city will hire a
contractor to remove the trees and bill you for the service, giving you (30) days to pay or the city will assess
these charges against your property for payment.
Again, please contact our office by June 22, 2011 to confirm compliance with this request. If you have any
questions, feel free to contact me.
Thank you for your cooperation in this matter,
Sincerely,
rer£cia W el�r
