SECTION 22060-22062
22060. The board may remove any tree or any part thereof which appears to be dead, is liable to fall, is dangerous or is an obstruction to public travel, whether or not the tree is on any private property and overhangs or projects into any street or is in any street, park, parkway or other public grounds of the city. 22061. Except in the case of manifest public danger and immediate necessity, no such tree shall be wholly cut down or removed unless 10 days' notice in writing is given to the owner, tenant, or occupant, or agent of the owner, tenant or occupant of the land upon which the tree is situate. 22062. If the owner, tenant, occupant, or agent, within seven days after the giving of the notice, files with the board his objections in writing to the removal, the tree shall not be cut down or removed unless the board gives the owner, tenant, occupant, or agent a reasonable opportunity to be heard and shall thereafter approve in writing the removal of the tree.
