Severe weather, including high winds, are forecasted for tonight. With the high winds, it is possible that limbs or branches from boulevard trees may break and fall.
Trees, branches, or limbs that pose an imminent public safety risk should be reported to 911. This includes trees that have fallen on power lines or are blocking an entire roadway.
Please report non-urgent matters, such as fallen tree limbs piled on the boulevard, by emailing publicworks@owatonna.gov or using SeeClickFix to report a Boulevard Tree Concern. These non-urgent reports will be responded to as crews are in the area. Depending on storm severity, it may take multiple days to address all reports.
The Public Works Department is anticipating a high volume of boulevard tree reports and online reports will assist in maintaining a list for pick up. Thank you.
