Band 9: Your neighbor's tree is causing problems on your property (e.g., falling leaves, blocking sunlight). You have tried to resolve this issue informally, but it hasn't worked. Write a letter to your neighbor explaining the ongoing problems. You should include details about: - describing specific issues caused by the tree - explaining your previous attempts to resolve the problem - suggesting a specific course of action to address the issue.

Dear Mr. Johnson,

I hope you are doing well. I am writing to let you know about an ongoing issue caused by the large tree in your backyard, which is affecting my property.

Over the past few months, the tree’s branches have grown significantly and are now hanging over my garden. As a result, a large amount of leaves constantly fall into my yard, blocking my drainage system and making it difficult to keep the area clean. Moreover, the thick branches have started to block sunlight from reaching my vegetable garden, causing my plants to wither.

I have spoken to you a couple of times about this matter, and you kindly agreed to trim the tree. However, unfortunately, the issue has not yet been resolved, and the situation is getting worse, especially during windy days.

I would really appreciate it if you could arrange to have the tree pruned professionally in the coming weeks. This would not only prevent further damage but also maintain the pleasant appearance of both our properties.

Thank you very much for your understanding and cooperation. I look forward to your response.

Yours sincerely, Ms Soliha
