Debris removal contractors are working
throughout the City. We estimate it will
take up to 20 days to complete the first pass. The City’s contractor Crowder Gulf, began debris collection from the
City’s rights-of-way on Saturday, September 16. As of the close of
business on Tuesday, September 19, 283 loads of debris had been collected
(12,437 cubic yards) in four days. They have also removed 12 leaning
trees and 1,116 hanging limbs.
The debris removal crews are currently in neighborhoods
throughout the City. Attached is a map
of areas where a first pass has occurred as indicated by red dots. Each
dot does not represent a household, but rather an area where debris has been
pushed into a pile and picked up. Root
balls and large stumps will be removed after all other storm debris has been
removed.
If you hire a contractor for tree removal services, they are
required to remove the debris from your property and properly dispose of it
pursuant to City of Ormond Beach Code of Ordinances, Section 10-65, Contractor
Debris.
Also, please be
advised that open burning of commercial waste, residential trash,
garbage, lawn debris, clippings, trees or other debris on residential,
commercial or industrial property is prohibited within the City. (City of Ormond Beach Code of
Ordinances, Section 9.2)

questions, please contact the City’s Public Works Department at
