I have a client looking to buy an adorable historic home in Lafayette. Between the sidewalk and the street, we spy a very large, old, beautiful tree about ten feet from the streetlight. The buyer asked if that tree is the homeowner’s responsibility. I had no answer for him!
I called the City Clerk and discovered that Lafayette has an official Urban Forester and Urban Forestry group under the Public Works umbrella. The Forester kindly returned my call and patiently answered all my questions about this City Tree situation.
