Brad and Elayne Rix are seeking $ 35,000 in compensation for lost trees in Kelowna .

Fortis BC pruned two large Linden trees in fall of 2023 as branches were perilously close to power lines.

Brad Rix , a former Fortis lineman, said he had no choice but to finish the job himself and remove the trees completely.

Last spring , another Kelowne resident came home to find his Spruce tree half gone.
