Julie I totally understand! I work for the electric company and you don't know how many times we hear that. It is nice to have the shade but it is also nice to have your power. There are requirements up here in MA that we have to trim around the lines to prevent any outages caused by broken tree limbs.
Maybe you can check with your company around Arbor Day if they plant any trees because of the removals that they do. We plant many trees in areas not near the lines to compensate for the trimming we do. Maybe your company would plant one in your yard???? Although the ones we plant are tiny and by the time it is grown enough for shade your kids will be in college
