Rant: The wait for that city tree permit nearly drove me nuts

I had a client with a huge pine leaning over their garage. It was clearly a risk, so we agreed to remove it. I sent in the permit application right away in March. They told me it would be quick, but I didn't hear back for over two months. I kept checking in, and each time they said it was still being processed. We had a windy spell in April, and I was just hoping the tree would hold on. By the time approval came, my summer calendar was already packed tight.

The permit wait? Heard delays are common everywhere.

Yeah, tell me about it. Some areas are way worse than others though.

Our neighbor's permit for a dead oak took the city 11 weeks to approve.
