Specifics on Upcoming Tree Removal

As we start the tree removal within The Meadows, here's some specifics:

  • Trees will be removed with stumps left behind. These stumps will be approximately 10" high. The stump will be treated with Round-Up to kill the stump.
  • Stumps will be untreated in slide-potential areas to prevent a slide during rainier times
  • If you'd like chips for mulch or firewood from the tree removals, please let us know as this will reduce the amount of time and expense incurred and will allow us to address more of the fuel reduction issues.

We're doing our best to address all of the assessed properties. Please know that we have a limited budget and may need to adjust our scope as we move through the neighborhood. If anyone wants us to leave the logs for firewood or wants chippings left at their property, please let me know as this will reduce the number of man hours required for this job.

We're beginning Monday at the top of Risinghill and will move through the neighborhood over the next two weeks. I'll be calling each affected neighbor to confirm timing and selection of trees or bushes as each are marked over the coming weeks.

Please be patient as we move through this new process.
