You need a permit in LA to trim trees?
Insane.
They need a ‘permit’ to trim trees?.............................
So give them their citation/fine and be done with it.
If the maintenance staff at NBC could wire up a door switch so that Matt Lauer could molest women in his office, they could certainly handle trimming a few trees to harass striking workers.
permit was pulled...
I wonder if a permit is needed to hose the crap off of the sidewalks.

Meh. Universal can afford to pay the fine. Might as well chop the trees down. Sure, you’ll get another fine, which is meaningless to Universal, and the city will replant them, but the protestors won’t be getting much shade for a decade or so.
They can say that maybe counter protestors did it.
The one problem is the studios trimming public trees on public property.
It’s not at all clear that the studio had the trees trimmed, or if they did, if if was part of a pre-existing maintenance contract.
This was over on the “back” side of the studio, along Barham near Forest Lawn Drive, and there are probably less than 10 trees along that sidewalk. It’s always drama when there’s labor trouble, but it’s particularly enjoyable to watch the entitled actors and screenwriters warring with the equally horrible studios. It’s like watching your enemies destroy each other!
That would burn me up, make me go on strike!
Now I want the same expensive raise AND a promise to not trim that tree....or no deal.
Good thing I saw this article, otherwise I would have continued to forget that there is a strike in Hollywood.
Trim your Trees without a permit?......NOW you're in trouble buddy!!!
They can use umbrellas and write their strike slogans on them.
