Proposal

An overgrown acer negundo, which requires regular lopping as it interferes with the electric power lines. Repeated lopping by the power companies has made it misshapen and unattractive. I would like to replace it with a smaller fruit tree away from the power lines which will be more in keeping with the area, more beneficial to nativewildlife and easier to maintain.
