Trees have lives, but even as long as those lives can be, trees do die. When a tree's condition threatens structures and utility lines, property owners come face to face with the inevitable. On this edition of Up to Date, one such owner tells the tale of a tremendous silver maple that once shaded his backyard. Joining the conversation is a spokesperson for KCP&L with steps utilities take to keep power lines clear and safe.
Guests:
- Christopher Jones is a Kansas City property owner of the champion silver maple.
- Courtney Hughley is a spokesperson for KCP&L.
