The City is working with local organizations and community volunteer groups to facilitate assistance for residents in need following severe weather in our area. If you are unable to clear debris from the July 14 storm from your yard, please complete the form below.
Community volunteer groups may prioritize responses based on level of need. The City will forward requests to volunteer groups on the following business day for assistance with:
- Cutting damaged limbs
- Collecting downed limbs/debris from yard
- Moving debris to the curb for pick-up by private trash hauler
While the City and community volunteer groups will make every effort to accommodate all requests, we cannot guarantee that all cleanup requests will be fulfilled.
Street tree debris
The City does not maintain trees on private property. The City maintains trees that are in the public right-of-way and will remove storm debris from these trees. Street trees are typically in the area about 11 feet back from the curb. If a tree in the right-of-way adjacent to your home was affected by Friday’s severe weather, file an OPCares request to let us know.
