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
Saturday, September 23, 653 loads of debris had been collected (29,093 cubic
yards) in eight days. They have also removed 20 leaning trees and 2,233
hanging limbs.
The debris removal crews are currently in neighborhoods
throughout the City. 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)
