What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state? Mn.

I have lived in my condo for 25 years. There is a beautiful apple tree in the
courtyard which I gaze at daily out my window. The board of directors has
announced that this tree will be removed. The reason for the board's decision
is that the tree drops too much fruit in the fall and the 20 or 30 minutes it
takes to clean up the fallen fruit each week is too time consuming for the
maintenance staff.
The fact the apple tree is wonderful to look at and has been a
important part of my and other residents landscape for years begs a
question. Does the removal of thiis tree which may adversely affect the
property value of my condo allow me to consider any legal action against
the board?

My response:

No, you have no rights to the tree. Simply, the tree isn't yours and isn't on your property; therefore, you have no legal "standing".

Why don't YOU offer to maintain the tree?

**A: do not be quick to judge. Crabapples make a fine fruity tartlike wine.
It makes me even grouchier, especially the Crabby Ice Apple vintage years of 2001.
Maybe they could market a new health drink called Crapple?

Maybe that's why they are crabby? Or worse yet, perhaps they think they can catch crabs from a crab apple tree :rolleyes:

I think they should bring in an arborist to determine the value of the tree.

**A: that's a very good idea. Be sure to tell the arborist that the orginal seed came from a tree in Asia grown on the grounds of a Mongolian temple.

alls I can say is too bad

Its too bad it wasn't an orange tree.. You could graft it to your Mimosa tree, Judge and we could add Champagne...

I will bring the tamales and the creme brulee.
