When I was an Austin Energy commissioner 2008-2013 vegetation management came up in discussion a lot. The problem was that rich, empowered customers in Tarrytown, NW Hills, Westlake, etc. *hated* the tree trimming and fought to slow it down. We're paying the price for that now.

Austin Energy's 2021 Annual Report touted a doubling of the tree trimming budget and hiring of an additional contractor to do more vegetation management. Interestingly, the utility has trimmed more miles in previous years than the 313 it reports here.
