With storm season approaching, OVA would like to remind residents with mature trees on their property to take a moment to consider their condition.
Some signs of potential tree concerns may not be obvious to an untrained eye. Residents may wish to consider having mature trees assessed by a qualified tree professional, particularly if they have not been evaluated or maintained recently. A professional can help identify dead or weakened branches, structural concerns, or other conditions that could become more problematic during periods of heavy rain and wind.
Taking a proactive look now can help identify potential issues before winter storms arrive.
Please note: OVA is providing this information as a general courtesy and seasonal reminder. Property owners are responsible for evaluating and maintaining trees on their property and for following any applicable City requirements.
