Residents should be aware that gardeners [who do not hold a California Tree and Palm Contractors License] are limited to performing incidental pruning of trees less than 15 feet in height (Cal Bus. Prof. 7026.1) and are not permitted to perform major tree work.
Unless you work exclusively as a sub-contractor under a licensed General Contractor or a company with a C-27 Landscaping License, you must get the C-61 Limited Specialty License before you can perform tree maintenance and removal services in California.
Illegal pruning or willful damage to any protected oak tree can result in a $10,000 fine and/or 6 months in jail.
A Tree Removal Permit (PDF) is required to remove a protected tree that is located between the house and any adjacent street. In addition, an Urban Grove located anywhere on a property may be subject to protection.
Give them a chance to take care of the trimming themselves, and/or offer to do it if they prefer. Keep in mind that California has very strict laws regarding tree trimming. Under section 3346 of the California Civil Code, a person may not cut or remove any part of a tree that does not overhang their property.

If the trees were in an easement, then yeah, they have every right to remove them without your permission and you have pretty much no chance of getting them back. The easements that the city could have on your property are: utility.
It depends. Depending on where the trees trunks and branches lie on your property line, you can trim or cut them to upkeep your space but you cant go over the line, according to state law. All trimmings should be reasonable and shouldnt harm or the tree. Otherwise, you could be responsible for any damages.
