The City of Topeka passed an item requiring owners of a mobile home property to take on responsibility for removing or pruning “dangerous trees”. Tuesday evening, the Topeka City Council unanimously approved an action item that states the owner of a mobile home property is responsible for removing or trimming any trees that are deemed “dangerous” until they are no longer considered a safety risk, instead of the individuals who reside on the property. District 2 Councilwoman Christina Valdivia-Alcala first introduced this ordinance at the request of a constituent. This comes after a storm knocked down a tree, splitting a Topekans home in half earlier this year.
