Todd,
I’ve reviewed the information that was gathered today on this
and would share that:
1. The notice referenced in the claim appears to be an
email from Derek Nelson, the Director of Operations for the Westin
Desert Willow Villas,to Derek White and Ryan Szydlowski on February 23,
2021. This email reads: “Good afternoon gents, please see attached. The
recent high winds caused this branch to break. Is this on your or our
property?” Derek White forwarded this email to three of his staff,
asking them to check on the tree and to clean it up. There was an
acknowledgement of this email from his staff.
2. Derek White has shared that he did not receive
follow-up from his team or Westin’s from the clean-up of the broken
branch in February, although Chris Bien recollects that when they were
notified, they went to the site, cut up and removed the fallen branch,
and cleaned up the area. Desert Willow staff inspected the tree and
found that it was healthy and that the broken branch was a result of
high winds.
There’s nothing else to report.

Can you please look into this and what, if any actions, were
taken in February when we were served notice.
