City crews are beginning to pick up downed tree limbs along roadway curb sides and public right-of-ways. First priority will be for those tree limbs determined to pose a safety hazard. All other tree limbs will be picked up from curb sides as time and weather permit. Residents are asked to please not place tree limbs in the actual roadway.

Residents are also asked to please be patient while the City makes every effort to remove the downed tree limbs from curb sides as soon as it can. The crews removing these limbs are the same crews that plow and salt the roads during snow events, and unfortunately more inclement weather is expected over the next several days and weeks.

For more information please call (937) 837-1702.
