— Officers investigated at 1:01 p.m. reports that a tree service company was being uncooperative and was in the process of removing a tree in a curb lawn it had not been given permission to remove by the Shade Tree Committee on High Street on March 25. Zoning officials confirmed at the scene that no permission was given nor was the company a registered contractor of the village. Jerry Taylor, owner of Taylor Tree Service, was removing a very large tree that appeared healthy. The roads were not blocked off during the process and the truck did not display proper registration. Zoning officer Gavin Rambo advised Taylor to stop and clean up the area until proper permission was obtained. Taylor then contacted Leetonia Mayor Kevin Siembida by cell phone asking for permission to continue the job. Rambo also contacted the mayor and advised that the company was not authorized to remove the tree nor did the company register with the village. Siembida reportedly advised Rambo to allow the removal of the tree to be completed as they had already started. Taylor later presented proper registration for his vehicle before leaving the area. The zoning office is looking into the matter.
