(WKTV) - Art Risucci has owned Art's Tree and Stump Removal Service for almost three decades. Ironically he lives in Deerfield, just blocks away from what he calls the worst concentration of tree damage in the Greater Utica area he has ever seen.

A confirmed tornado touched down in Deerfield on Tuesday evening, just a block off of the town's busiest roadway, Walker Road.

Risucci has been out with his staff at homes on Walker Road., Wells Drive, Glendale Place and Beaumond Place since the tornado struck, cutting down and removing trees. He says these past two days have been the busiest two days business-wise he can remember.

"Over a hundred phone calls," he said. "My wife's been taking the calls. We can only do three, four jobs a day, so some people don't understand, some do. But they're on a lot on houses, on garages, on cars, but we'll get them off."

Risucci says the tornado ripped trees in ways that make tree removal difficult and dangerous.

"It's a lot harder because they're twisted, they're broken, the saw is pinching in the cracks. They're hung up. It's not like cutting a straight up-and-down tree. Now it's challenging. A lot more rope, a lot more hanging on to things."

Risucci and the members of his staff aren't complaining about the extra work, but are looking forward to a day off. With hundreds of trees down, they just don't know how soon that day off will come.

In Jefferson City, residents will have to take tree limbs to theyard waste drop off siteat 2417 Southridge Drive.

There is no charge for residents to drop off limbs, but there will be a charge for non-residents and businesses.

Jefferson City has no plans for a special pick up. Residents will be responsible for the disposal of yard waste.

The city does ask to be notifed if a tree on a right of way has been damaged.

Columbia residentswith fallen tree limbs can put them with their trash, with some limitations. Twigs and branches too small to bundle can be placed in bags, box or disposal containers. Larger limbs need to be bundled. They cannot be longer than four feet long, two feet in diameter. Bundles cannot weigh more than 50 pounds.

(SAINT JOHN) With the majority of emergency and high priority tree removal tasks near completion, the City is preparing for the clean-up phase, which includes a program to assist residents with the clean-up of storm-damaged tree material.

This pick up is only for leaves, branches and trunks of trees damaged by post-tropical storm Arthur.

Residents are asked to have any debris, such as leaves, branches, or trunks, from their fallen and damaged trees to the curb by end of day Monday, July 14 for a one time pick up service by city crews the following morning.

The curb side clean-up is expected to take approximately four days to complete, and will begin simultaneously in all areas across the City.

To report hazards, such as fallen or hanging branches in public spaces, please contact Municipal Operations 658-4455.

City is preparing for the clean-up phase after storm

The Rancho Santa Fe Association board approved the tree management plan for the back nine holes of the Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club course at its July 3 meeting. The plan for holes 10 through 18 calls for the removal of 56 trees, the replanting of 74 replacement trees and the elimination of over 7.9 acres of turf, which will be replaced with native shrubs and save a substantial amount of money on water, according to RSF Golf Club Manager Al Castro.

After a somewhat contentious community meeting in 2013 about the clubs removal of trees to increase playability, the RSF Association and RSF Golf Club decided to work together to create a comprehensive plan.

A tree management committee made up of members from the RSF Golf Club, the RSF Associations trails committee and the committee on the natural environment (CONE) was formed to give every tree on the course a thoughtful review and analysis.

In May, the board approved the plan for the front nine that included the removal of 32 trees, the planting of 30 new replacement trees and an additional 10.7 acres of turf.

The total of 18.9 acres of turf being removed is part of the clubs overall effort to conserve water and irrigation costs, which have doubled over the last eight years, Castro said.

The work on the front nine is expected to begin in September with a 90- to 120-day construction process. The tree plan for holes 10 through 18 are part of phase two and is scheduled to begin in September 2015.

Two men are accused of bilking a 75-year-old Winter Park man out of tens of thousands of dollars for tree removal and foundation repair work that was never completed, police said.

One of the men, Kenneth Caron Jr., 42, was charged last year in Maitland with running a similar scam.

According to Winter Park police, a woman solicited the man to complete work on his home. Her son, John Anthony Hadden, 34, and Caron then started taking payments from the victim for work that was not done nor needed, police said.

Winter Park police Sgt. John Bologna did not have an exact figure but said it was between $20,000 and $100,000.

"It's unfortunate with the elderly, they are very trusting," Bologna said. "(The victim) trusted these individuals."

The investigation started in mid-March. After interviewing the victim, authorities uncovered the scam, Bologna said. Caron and Hadden were charged with second-degree exploitation of the elderly.

Caron, also charged with burglary of dwelling, is being held in the Orange County Jail on a $10,000 bond. Hadden was arrested last month and posted a $2,500 bond.

Caron was accused last summer of taking nearly $20,000 from an 83-year-old Maitland woman in another tree skimming scam. In that case, authorities alleged he approached the woman and said the trees were "too long" and had termites. He said they had to be cut down immediately because they violated city code.

He was charged with third-degree exploitation of the elderly. The case is still pending.

State corrections records show Hadden was sentenced in May to three years probation for trafficking stolen property.

Cops: Elderly man lost thousands in tree-trimming scam

ARCADIA The Woo family would like a once-stately ash tree that came crashing down on their Yarmouth County home Saturday safely removed from atop their roof.

But Patsy and Keenan Woo say they are having a hard time finding someone to tackle the project.

That used to be a carriage house years ago, and now its a big room, Patsy Woo said Tuesday, pointing toward their renovated family room.

What they believe to be a giant ash tree lies on the roof, exactly where it fell.

When the tree fell Saturday during the worst moments of Arthurs fury, with wind gusts reaching more than 100 kilometre per hour, the Woos thought all was lost.

Damage is still being assessed.

We dont know yet, Patsy Woo said about estimated repair costs.

Theres no holes in the roof, but we cant really see what damage there is until we lift everything off the house.

The ancient ash appears to be more than one tree growing together in multiple trunks.

Woo saw the tree come down in a moment of shock and awe.
