CITY IMPLEMENTS SPECIAL EFFORT TO ASSIST RESIDENTS IN DISPOSAL OF TREE LIMB DEBRIS IN HARDEST HIT AREA OF STORM
To assist residents in disposal of large tree debris, beginning Monday, August 10, DPW's Solid Waste Division will begin monitoring the area experiencing the most damage in down trees bordered by 10th St. (north), Brookville Rd. (south), Kitley St.(east) and Sherman Ave. (west) and will pick up large tree and limb debris.
"In addition to clearing public areas, we want to ensure that we provide as much assistance as we can to residents who need help with disposal of large wooded debris," said DPW Director David Sherman.
"We can't encroach upon private property, but if residents can get the debris to the curb over the weekend, we'll have vehicles out to pick it up during the week."
City workers are not able to access private property to remove any wooded debris, so residents must ensure that large tree and/or limb debris is placed at the curb.
Smaller wooded debris should be cut and bundled into 3 foot lengths weighing not more than 40lbs and placed so that the bundles can be collected with regular trash pick-up.
Residents outside the boundaries of the heaviest hit area should contact the MAC at 327-4622.

Do you know what will happen with all the stuff in the alleys that they cut down? Do we have to drag it out of the alley or will they come pick that up? Our alley (for the houses on Arlington between St. Clair and Pleasant Run) is an unimproved, unpaved alley that's really just easement for the utilities.
