Trees over Streets Need Trimming

Chief Kiracofe, of the Jollyville Fire Dept , is requesting all residents to trim their trees that front Travis and Williamson County streets (all streets in the district) to a height no lower than 14 feet . This is to insure that the new Jollyville fire truck is able to maneuver through North Austin M.U.D #1’s streets in an emergency . Williamson County will be following up within the next months and will trim the trees near Williamson County streets If residents fail to do so . If the residents are particular about how the trees will be trimmed, they may want to do the work themselves. If the County does the work there will not be the opportunity for residents to have direct input as to how they want their trees trimmed.
