Calhoun County Road Department tree removal operations begin soon, as part of preparation for future road work and federal safety grant projects.

Contractors will cut the trees first, and then come back later to remove debris. Then, yard restoration will take place where the land is disrupted. Learn about where these operations are happening on the CCRD website.
