Describe the proposed tree work and the service-interruption question
Describe the tree and work area from information already available, including whether a provider has raised a service-interruption question. Record who raised it and what remains to be clarified; do not approach lines or inspect electrical equipment to develop the enquiry.
An initial price can be discussed without pretending the utility arrangement is settled. Ask the tree-work provider which part of its proposal depends on that arrangement and preserve the dependency beside the relevant work item.
Keep the permission record distinct from the quote
Galion’s tree-trimming page states that, when service is disconnected, the tree trimmer needs written permission from the landowner or electric consumer. This conditional permission point is separate from accepting a quote.
Ask which permission record is being sought and how the actual utility coordination will be confirmed. Keep the identified person, purpose of the permission and proposed work together, without assuming who may interrupt service or that an ordinary quote signature answers the question.
Questions about this project
Is accepting a tree-trimming quote the same as written permission for an electric-service interruption?
Do not assume so. The City resource identifies a separate written-permission question when service is disconnected. Ask what record the actual arrangement needs.
What should remain unresolved if no utility interruption has been confirmed?
Keep the work area, who raised the interruption and the unconfirmed utility arrangement explicit. Leave electrical coordination to the appropriate parties rather than describing the dependency as completed.

For a rented home, confirm who can authorize alterations. In a shared building, ask about access and work rules. A citywide construction period does not establish the age, condition or safety requirements of an individual home; check the property records and the specific project.
