Trees Trimmed As Part Of Hurricane Preparation

September 6, 2022

The Department of Parks carried out tree trimming and maintenance on Berry Hill Road in Paget as part of the Government’s hurricane preparedness efforts, which include cutting back overhanging vegetation and shrubbery around the Island.

A Government spokesperson said, “High winds from storms have the potential to knock over trees and create additional difficulties during clean-up efforts following a storm’s passage.

“These measures, along with the cooperation of residents who are encouraged to trim back overhanging trees on public roads from their properties, can prevent future power outages, road closures and an extended clean-up. Residents are encouraged to be prepared in the event of a hurricane this season. For a more comprehensive list of steps, residents can take to prepare for hurricane season, visit here.”

    What a load of PWD crap.

    PLP (Gov/Depts) wait until a potential threat appears to start trimming what they should have been trimming for years (employee waste).

    Next erection, vote them out.

    Vote anybody any party.

    If Government workers are cutting trees that land owners haven’t, then Government should charge the land owner at current landscaping/tree trimming rates
