There is a huge pile of cut down albizia off kahakai right now. An albizia fell down across the road, helco came out to cut it up and left a big bunch by the side, too close to the road. Nobody seems interested in it.
Saw something to the effect that cutting albizia on a volunteer effort is encouraged. There is also some solar PV bills that are going through that actually makes the neighbor with blocking foliage liable for preventing a solar panel installation. A lot of stuff falls on the road during the winter (yes, there is winter here) storms. And there are plenty of people looking for their lots to be thinned of the junk trees. They are dangerous though, real top heavy so their falling direction can change with a gust of wind.
