    How about calling the city? We have no idea where you live and what the charges might be.

    Did you not have automotive liability insurance? If you did, your insurance company should pay the claim for damages to the tree. Just be sure you notify them of the claim.

    What did the letter say? I'm surprised it didn't just list the cost.
