Scottie's Tree

The tree at Scottie's house is splitting and about to fall with one good storm. He contacted the HOA people and they said they'd have to get approval to remove the tree from the City of Norcross. Well, if it falls and kills someone car or worse, would they still need approval? They finally got approval but now they have to send someone out to remove it. They better hurry.

First picture, look at his tree. You can see that the limbs are getting heavy and the whole middle is open. So not suppose to be like that....

There are actually three separate cracks down the base of the tree. So, if the tree decides to break, not really sure which way it will fall.
The last picture is of the tree next door. This is what Scottie's tree is suppose to look like. Full and no hole's in the middle.
