Replying for 914 driver and my photo. The answer is yes. The officials were trying to clamp down on it, and there was a major discussion after the incident in the Lime Rock photo, which is about 4 years after the Bridgehampton pic that 914 posted.

You, or your neighbor? Last summer when we were walking our neighborhood every day, somebody bought a house with 3-4 big trees like that in the yard. Within the month they were gone - and worse, they left the stumps sticking up about 2-3 ft. Still there this summer.

Me.

The roots already caused a massive sewage issue earlier this year, it is wrecking the driveway, and a couple of the branches overhanging the house were dead/dying and I have been nervous with every wind storm that I'd come home to half a tree sticking out of my bedroom roof.

We really wanted to keep it, but it was becoming a major liability. Especially since half of it was over/under the neighbor's house.

We have a bigger one in the back yard and a couple smaller ones.

Going to rent a stump grinder to reduce what is left?

You mean every homeowner on 1/4 acre doesn't have their own stump grinder and trio of chainsaws?

two weeks ago this was three 50' tall Bradford pears. Good riddance.

I'd have gone with a Hellephant crate motor. Or a cranked-up 5.9L 12V Cummins
