I'm dealing with a road widening project. The city is telling me my tree is worth $2,100. I have a healthy Maple tree, 42" trunk, 70' high. The tree is about 40' from my home and provides indirect light to my entire backyard for most of day, as well as shading my home from sunrise till early afternoon in the spring and summer. I feel the city is not providing adequate reimbursement.
Most of our urban tree work is removal of trees on condition of a buyer signing a purchase contract, as trees are increasingly viewed as a liability/cost risk to a homeowner, and not an asset with value.

Sped it up to 1.25 and it's about how a normal person talks...

There are NO trees on pipeline right of ways.
