Just want give everyone an update, I'm the OP, I've been putting off
talking to my neighbor but finally talked to him the other day and now
I know why I was putting it off. He basically offered to pay for half
of the removal - after he tried to argue with me that the tree was on
MY property! I wasn't really in the mood to argue with him considering
he just found of he has cancer so I agreed with him although I really
feel like I'm getting the shaft in this deal since it's his tree and
it's been dead for years.
