Title: Fallen Tree Blocks McCollum Sidewalk
Post by: jay on September 07, 2018, 12:02:53 PM
About two days ago a dead tree fell over and landed on the sidewalk on McCollum Road across from Number 15 Fire Station.   So far, no one has made an attempt to remove the tree blocking the sidewalk.

As of this morning, the tree debris was still blocking the sidewalk.

Nothing has changed.  The sidewalk is still blocked.

How big is it?  Does it just need dragged out of the way or would a chainsaw be in order?

Can a chainsaw be taken on a WRTA bus? If so, someone could take a free ride there, cut it up then get a free ride home.

If it is actually blocking the sidewalk, call the Youngstown Park and Recreation Department, and they will come out and remove it.

Today I drove my car to this location.  I lifted two heavier logs off the sidewalk and did my best to shove the other debris to the side.

Problem solved?  Some large logs still remain on the yard and tree lawn.

Well I must say I'm very impressed that you did that.  You are The Man!
