[Leica] House and Storm Debris On Arbor Avenue

[Christopher Crawford]

Normally the city doesn’t, but we've never had a storm like this. The storm's winds reached 98mph according to the National Weather Service; most of the city's 275,000 residents lost electricity; thousands of trees were broke off at the ground or simply uprooted (and many of them were very large, thick trees!). One person in my neighborhood was killed when the wind propelled a tree through a window in her house.

So, the city government told residents to pile their fallen trees along the road and the city would collect them. The trees are being ground up to make mulch. The parks department uses a lot of it in the flower gardens in the city's parks, and they are offering free mulch to residents. There were so many trees downed that it was only last week that most of the trees had finally been collected.

    Does Ft Wayne pick up tree debris or is that the owners responsibility?
