Answer

Who is usually responsible for removing a storm-felled tree in Mallorca?

Responsibility in Mallorca usually depends on where the tree is, who owns the land and whether public infrastructure is affected. If the tree is on private property, the owner is often expected to organise removal, while utility companies may need to act if cables or the grid are involved. In real emergencies, that division can become confusing and slow.
