NOTICE TO RESIDENTS

DISASTER DEBRIS CLARIFICATION
Polk County clarifies that the County can only assist with removal of disaster debris from the right-of-way when the homeowner has done the work themselves or utilized the service of unpaid volunteers. The County can only assist with removal of disaster debris from a privately maintained road if the County has a Right-of-Entry from the HOA/POA. Homeowners if you hire a contractor to cut a tree off of your home, make certain the contractor is hauling off the debris. Homeowners if you hire a contractor to muck and gut your home, make certain the contractor hauls off the debris. Homeowners should check their insurance policies for any repair or other damage elements eligible for reimbursement.
