Resolved. Violation issued for overgrown weeds.

Description
Requesting shrub and tree removal on segment of Baker St. On the West side of Baker St just north of VFW Pkwy (ACROSS the street from 585 Baker St, an address this form required me to provide), between a cemetery entrance and approximately across from Brook Farm Rd, debris, weeds, and shrubs are overgrown such that there is no longer a sidewalk. Note: there is one paved there, but it is unusable. Both before and after the overgrowth, this is the side of the street where the sidewalk is that one can take toward Newton; however, no one can walk that side safely, as they'll have to walk in the street for a good stretch. The other side isn't a good option because it doesn't have continuous sidewalk, and there isn't a good place to cross apart from right at VFW Pkwy intersection. Picture shows the stretch on the West side of the street that needs recovery (highlighted yellow); the circled red area shows where the sidewalk stops (and the ends) on the other side, leaving now safe option for pedestrians. Much appreciation to considering cleaning up the West stretch of sidewalk!
