Tree that knocked out power Sunday Night
This tree came down Sunday night around 7pm. In conjunction with the power company we did our best to limit the time residents were without power.

Public Works
Recently we were called to a Borough house on a report of a tree that had split during a wind storm. After checking weather maps we saw heavy thunder and wind storms were approaching. A house was in the fall zone. We immediately braced and shackled the tree in order to make it safe for climbing. You will see in the following pictures the Department of Public Works removing a dangerous tree before a predicted 40mph wind storm.

Tree Crew
Shackles and bracing installed on tree. This consisted of bring up nearly 100lbs of chains and binders to support the tree.
