Dear Citizens of the City of Central,
We want to thank you for your continued support and understanding as we work diligently to address tree issues in our community. While we are doing our absolute best to help each and every one of you, we kindly ask that you please go through the correct avenue to report tree issues.
It has come to our attention that many of you are reaching out through Facebook comments, but it is nearly impossible for us to keep up with these in a timely manner. By reporting tree issues and others through the proper channels, such as our app and phone line, we can ensure that your concerns are addressed promptly and efficiently.
Thank you for your cooperation and understanding. Together, we can keep our city beautiful and safe for all residents.
