Summary

On August 16, 2010, Gillespie announced that multiple dead trees were scheduled for removal the following day along Donegal Bay Road, between the Resale Shop intersection and the Township Campground. The notice anticipated brief full road closures while trees were felled, followed by partial reopening while debris was collected; travel via Bud Martins was suggested as an alternative.

Evidence limits

This is a contemporaneous local work notice, not a completion report. The forum does not establish whether the work occurred as planned, how many trees were removed, who performed it, or the resulting road condition.
