Keeping <br />trees healthy and trimmed helps with safety, tree health, and overall <br />appearance throughout Lake Elmo. <br />Our Public Works team maintains trees in the City’s right-of-way to <br />ensure clear streets, visible signs, room for emergency vehicles, and <br />safe travel for everyone. Diseased or hazardous trees may be <br />removed, and branches are trimmed to provide proper clearance <br />over streets (20 ft) and sidewalks (7 ft). <br />In rural areas, small branches may be left behind; in neighborhoods, <br />they’re chipped and hauled away. <br />If a tree is blocking the road, interfering with homes or vehicles, or <br />creating a safety concern, it becomes a priority for our crews. <br />Thanks for giving Public Works room to work safely—and for helping <br />keep Lake Elmo’s streets clear and our trees healthy! <br />Learn About the Features on Our New Website <br />The City of Lake Elmo will begin using the Civic Send email system <br />from our website to deliver the Fresh beginning in January.
