I am writing to you to apply for a big tree located just near my house. This tree really troubles me. The fact is that the tree stands in sun’s light and because of that a close-fitting room is too dark and gloomy. Also I must tell you we use that room as a nursery. Our son is only two months old and is still weak. As to me, I am his mother and I must be sure that I do my best to take care of him. But the tree doesn’t let my son to receive enough sunlight and I am pushed to ask you to solve this problem.
I would welcome the sooner opportunity to meet with you to discuss the subject. I hope the tree has to be out. To tell the truth the tree is quite old and can fall down any time and I can’t imagine that crash may happen.
While I am waiting for your decision, I hope that I am allowed to put away branches which directly cover the window. If I am allowed to do it, just call me as soon as possible and tell about it.
Addly, I want to know how much the cutting of the tree may cost and who must pay it. And which part of the payment our family has to pay. Also, I am interesting in possible discounts.
I will appreciate your prompt reply.
Yours faithfully, mrs. Apply
