Proposal

LARGE OAK TREE ON MY PROPERTY. PERMISSION GRANTED TREE WILL BE REDUCED IN SIZE (MINIMALLY). THE OAK TREE IS LARGE IN SIZE AND IN HIGH WINDS DOES SWAY. I WISH TO REMOVE BRANCHES TO ALLOW WIND TO PASS THROUGH THE TREE. I DO NOT WANT TO REMOVE THE TREE, JUST REMOVE MINIMAL LIMBS AS POSSIBLE TO ACHIEVE A SATISFACTORY LEVEL OF SAFETY. I ONLY WANT TO ALLOW WIND TO PASS THROUGH THE TREE FOR SAFETY. I INTEND TO CUT CAREFULLY SELECTED LEADER BRANCHES (ONLY TWO OF THEM). A YEAR LATER I WOULD THEN TAKE SMALLER BRANCHES (TWO OR THREE IN THAT YEAR). THE SAME AGAIN A YEAR LATER. JUST ENOUGH AND NO MORE.
