The City of Wapello will no longer collect damaged trees. The amendment to the city’s tree ordinance came with its third reading at the last City Council meeting. Dead and damaged trees will still be collected from resident’s properties.

According to Public Works Director Mike Delzell the change was prompted by a large number of people in the town wanting their trees collected. The change to the ordinance makes it similar to the ones in other surrounding communities.
