Yep. Could call it pollarding but it isn’t really. This was done too low. Tree is going to shoot long straight branches out in all directions with many heading over the sidewalk and street inconveniencing all that pass by.

Crap Myrtle. The hydra of trees. Cut one stem off and 3 more pop up out of its corpse. Repeat until you have a million stemmed horrible blob of a thing.
