Some tree limbs came down in my yard due to high wind – can I bring them to the compost site for free?
Fees for storm-generated debris can only be waived by the Town Board. This is usually done following severe storms with Town-wide impact putting at risk residents’ health and safety. Fees for debris from minor weather events are not waived.
