Golden Valley Emergency Tree Debris Pick Up Continues This Week

According to the city of Golden Valley, emergency brush pickup from the June 20-22 storms continues this week in three main areas of the city.

Crews are working to finish brush removal in Area 1, which is south of Highway 55 by Wednesday, July 10. Work east of Douglas Drive and north of Highway 55 in Area 2 started Monday and more crews will move there as work is completed in Area 1. Brush removal west of Douglas and north of Highway 55 in Area 3 could begin by Friday, July 12.

Based on an initial assessment, most of Area 2 should be completed by the end of the week. As Area 2 is completed, more crews will move to Area 3.

Please note that this is a one-time emergency collection in response to the excessive debris caused by the late June storms. The focus is to remove large brush piles from the community in a timely manner. Crews use large equipment as part of the removal process, and there may be a small amount of twigs and debris left behind. Please dispose of this yard waste material through your normal yard waste service, by taking it to a yard waste site, or by contacting your trash hauling company.

Please do not park vehicles in front of the brush piles.
