Crews worked through the night to clear trees and large limbs from blocking traffic. They are continuing to do so through the morning, and also addressing high priority safety hazards.

As Public Works is limited to cleaning up publicly-owned trees on city streets, they advise residents to take other debris to the Landscape Recycling Center. This disposal service comes with a fee.
