I keep seeing crews in my area over-pruning young street trees

They're taking off way more than the recommended 25% of the canopy, which stresses the tree and invites disease. Has anyone else had to talk to a city contractor about their pruning specs?

Seeing them over-prune young trees like that is so frustrating.

Over-prune young trees? That's just killing them.
