The city has carved back the base of our fallen tree so it is now easy to access the drive way. They don't really know what to do at this point. As far as we are concerned, it can stay like that for months until a safe way to remove the stump presents itself. Only 1 foot away is the water line into the house and a stump grinder may just damage, through vibration, the water source. Any ideas? Also just finished taxes!!!
