PRESS RELEASE FROM AMHERST HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT

nullCONTACT INFORMATION FOR TREE TAKEDOWNS

Amherst Highway Superintendent Robert Anderson begins Phase 3 of tree takedown work. We have completed the removal of Phase 1 and Phase 2 trees in the Town of Amherst. Phase 1 trees include all critical/dangerous trees. The Phase 2 trees removed were heartwood damaged trees that would not survive long-term. Moving into Phase 3 we are asking for residents input in regard to tree(s) they would like reviewed for possible takedown. This phase will concentrate on “matchstick” or “Charlie Brown” trees that may survive but no longer serve any useful purpose. If you feel you have one of these trees in front of your property that meet these criteria please e-mail us at checkmytree@amherst.ny.us or call 839 - 6707 and leave a message. All notifications should be submitted by September 7th.
