Nadeen Thompson said she had asked the crews when the debris would be removed, but was given a non-commital answer.
I called National Grid today and was asked to put the problem in writing. I did so, hoping that isn't just a stall tactic on the part of the utility. Here's the text of the e-mail complaint I registered today:
I am writing as President of the Terrace at Highpointe Homeowners Association, located off Oakwood Avenue (Rt. 40) in Troy, NY.
An area of woods was clear-cut behind the homes of several of our members in the aftermath of the winter ice storm. What was left behind by your crew is both an esthetic and public safety issue.
Huge tree trunks, some as much as four feet in diameter, and untold amounts of brush and debris have created a tinder box situation, and the condition in which the area was left -- by the crew, not the weather -- will potentially affect the value of the homes.
We would appreciate immediate cleanup of the area, which is near your Oakwood Avenue facility. Please contact me at the number listed above to ascertain a date for this cleanup so I may share that information with the other Terrace homeowners.
Thank you.
