🌳 STORM DEBRIS CLEANUP UPDATE — COLLECTION ARRANGEMENTS HAVE BEEN MADE 🌳
The Village of Sadorus has arranged assistance through a mutual aid agency to help our residents with the large amount of tree and brush debris left by the recent severe storm.
Crews will be in Sadorus on TUESDAY, August 18th to collect storm-related tree debris.
CURBSIDE COLLECTION
Residents who would like their storm debris picked up must have it moved to the edge of their property BEFORE Tuesday's collection.
Please:
- Place tree limbs, branches and other vegetative storm debris at the edge of your property where crews can safely reach it.
- Do not place debris in the roadway.
- Keep debris away from fire hydrants, utility poles, mailboxes and other obstacles.
- Keep tree and brush debris separate from garbage, construction materials, fencing, metal, furniture and other non-vegetative debris.
- Never approach, cut or move a tree or limb that is touching or near a downed power line.
Crews will be making their collection on Tuesday, so please do not wait until Tuesday to begin moving debris to the curb. Have it ready beforehand.
RESIDENTS MAY ALSO BRING STORM DEBRIS TO THE PARK
Residents who are able to haul their own tree and brush debris may take it directly to Sadorus Park.
ALL debris brought to the park must be taken to the SOUTH BALL DIAMOND PARKING LOT and placed ALL THE WAY TO THE BACK of the parking lot.
Please do not leave storm debris anywhere else in the park.
This temporary collection is for tree, limb and brush debris resulting from the recent storm. Please do not bring household garbage or other unrelated materials.
We greatly appreciate the mutual aid assistance being provided to our community, and we appreciate everyone's cooperation in getting debris properly placed and ready for collection. This service is only for residents of the Village of Sadorus and their Sadorus property.
Please share this information with your Sadorus neighbors, particularly anyone who may not regularly use Facebook.

We are officially declaring a local disaster emergency under §30-3-7 for the village of Sadorus. This allows the Board to conduct emergency meetings when they have a physical quorum and expressly suspend the local 48-hour procedural requirement of §1-2-3 under §30-3-7(C) because compliance would hinder or delay necessary emergency action.
As the village administration coordinates emergency relief efforts, please continue to safely pile debris near the road without blocking the roadway, fire hydrants, or other obstructions.

STORM DAMAGE – TREE & BRUSH CLEANUP
The Village of Sadorus is aware of the significant tree damage throughout the community following today's severe storms.
For now, please do not place tree limbs or brush in the roadway and please do not burn storm debris.
Residents are encouraged to make arrangements for debris removal. Alternatively, you may begin moving fallen limbs and brush to the street-side edge of their property. Please keep all debris out of the roadway and drainage areas and away from fire hydrants, utility poles, mailboxes and other obstructions.
DO NOT approach, cut, or move any tree or limb that is touching or near a downed power line.
Please separate tree limbs and brush from other storm debris. Do not mix lumber, fencing, shingles, garbage, metal, furniture or other materials with tree debris.
The Village is currently determining arrangements to assist residents with the disposal of storm-related tree debris. We will post additional instructions as soon as those arrangements are finalized.
Please be patient with neighbors, emergency crews, and Village officials as we all assess the damage and work to clear public streets and other hazards.
Our first priority is public safety and keeping Village streets passable.
Thank you to everyone who is already helping their neighbors and looking out for one another.
