The pine is on private property and about ten feet away from the power lines. Our Urban Forestry inspectors met with Progress Energy’s line clearance contractor and they have created a work order to remove the tree. They will not provide a timeline for the removal. For more information please contact Progress Energy.

It's PINES, plural. There are 3 of them. I'll be reopening this if nothing happens in a couple weeks.

The pines have been removed.
