Please note: Consumers Energy is a private electric utility that is regulated by the State of Michigan through the Michigan Public Service Commission. When tree trimming and removal work takes place, contractors working for Consumers Energy will chip branches and brush and cut larger wood and leave it stacked on site. When the tree trimming and removal work is completed, the City will provide a special yard waste pickup to the impacted areas to pick up any brush of larger cut wood that is placed out in the right-of-way (typically between the street and sidewalk).
