Since the park building will be used for early voting and a drop box location, it would be nice if we could get the tree trimming done before we start collecting ballots at that location. There will be more than the usual traffic and there will be people that are unfamiliar with the road. Please trim so that there is a good sightline for cars (and pedestrians) entering and leaving the area.

This issue was recategorized from Tree Concern to Mowing with Boom Mower.

The bushes are located in the red circled area on the map. They are overgrown and blocking visibility for those turning right onto Meadowbrook Lane and for those on Meadowbrook Lane trying to go straight or turn left onto Long Gate Pkwy.

Thanks

Thank you for submitting your request to the Howard County Department of Public Works. Our staff will investigate this issue and respond.

We will need to touch base with the Maryland Department of Agriculture. The area was s posted by them for no mowing.

Can you ask the MD Dept of Agriculture how the drivers are supposed to see, to safely traverse that area, with all of the overgrown mess that is at that intersection blocking the sight lines? And why would you put a biological control area at a blind intersection?
