better access an underground gas transmission line, in case there's an emergency. ktvu's amber lee shows us what's going on. >> oak, pines and redwood trees line the trail. >> trees add beauty to everything. i choose to walk here because it's pretty. >> it's a live coastal oak. probably a hundred, 150 years old. it's been a long time. >> this tree is among the 272 pg&e wants to cut down. city officials reached an agreement earlier this month as part of the utilities project to improve first responders access to underground gas transmission lines in the event of emergencies and protect pipelines from damage. >> when pg&e first approached the city, their list was a thousand trees. and we were able to work with the utility to lower that to just 272, although that still remains a big number. >> a big number that is not acceptable to dawson. >> i wish they would have involved the public with that process. because when that deal was announced at the city council meeting, it was signed and now they call it a done deal. >> dawson says he started this online petition saturday and has received more than 500 supporters so far. people who frequent the trail question the necessity of cutting down trees. >> i doubt that is 100% necessary for sure. >> reporter: fg and e -- pg&e says public safety is paramount. >> it's the same principle why you couldn't park behind a fire hydrant, the same principle as why you can't have trees, shrubs on top of a gas transmission line. it prevents emergency responders to have the quick access they need. >> it would be the same way for me to say down the road sometime i might get a cavity, so i'm going to take out my teeth. >> there's always alternatives. pg&e needs to talk to the home homeowners and come up with a solution for both sides. >> reporter: city officials say they have reached out to pg&e to meet with residents to address concerns. no date has been set yet. in lafayette, amber lee, ktvu, fox 2 news. ann coulter will
