Re: tree cutting

Are you sure that the Tree was located on your separate interest and not the common area of the community. The HOA has a duty to maintain common area's and the cutting of the tree maybe of result of this duty. However, if the tree was on your separate interest I would agree with you that you are entitled to another tree to be planted. Assuming that the tree was part of you separate interest you can contact the board and ask that it be replaced. Good Luck!
