<blockquote type="cite"><span>My biggest concern is that this is the time of year (mid-Feb. thru mid-July) when all oak trees (live, red, burr, etc) should NOT be trimmed due to the virulent spread of Oak Wilt Disease, which will kill the tree if it gets into
an open cut. Noted arborists are adamant about not trimming oaks during this period.

<blockquote type="cite"><span>I just left a message at Oncor’s number (1-800-518-2375) to have Kenneth Elliott, the Contact Person listed on the flyer, call me to discuss. It appears that he is unaware of this danger.

<blockquote type="cite"><span>I hope others of you who have oak trees will also give him a call and ask if they could please wait until after July 15 to trim.

<blockquote type="cite"><span>The secondary issue is that our trees will end up looking like those in the flyer. Some neighbors are contacting their own arborists to trim, so as not to end up with the butchering inflicted by the Oncor trimmers. The gentleman
who left the flyer said that, regardless of how a private arborist cuts our trees, ONCOR will trim per their 10’ guideline.
