(if memory serves) According to a podcast I listened to yesterday, they don't own the trees. They're public property trees. Trimming was not scheduled.

Yep. I heard they're actually being fined, sadly only for $250 because old city laws limit how much they can be fined.

If any of these trees dies, I hope Universal is on the hook for replacing it.

Considering the first fine, I fully expect the second one to be a grand total of tree fiddy
