Tree removal in Medina Township, Ohio mostly means yard trees on township lots to the north and east of the city of Medina. The township had 9,183 residents at the 2020 census on 18.1 square miles, and SR 3 meets I-71 at Exit 222 inside its borders (Wikipedia: Medina Township).
Medina Township has its own Roads Department, which removes fallen or dead trees that become hazards on township roads, while the county and ODOT look after their own routes. Because the township shares Medina mailing addresses with the city, the street address decides whose rules apply to a roadside tree.
Requests through this site reach a local tree contractor for tree removal, trimming, stump grinding or storm cleanup anywhere in the township.
Who clears fallen trees on Medina Township roads?
The township Roads Department, a crew of three full-time and three part-time workers, lists fallen or dead trees among the road hazards it removes, along with plowing and park upkeep. County roads in the township go to the Medina County Highway Department at 330-764-8780, and state routes such as SR 3 to ODOT.
Ohio Revised Code 5543.14 lets township trustees trim or remove trees growing in or over the township road right-of-way without paying the owner. A tree that comes down in a yard or on a house is handled by the owner through a private storm tree removal crew.
How bad can storm damage get in Medina Township?
On August 28, 2016, a storm toppled trees onto homes and roads around Medina. One resident counted 25 trees down on his property, and another had a limb come through the living room ceiling.
Capt. Mark Roberts of the Medina Township fire department described it as a rotating storm that never touched down but took the tops of trees for about two miles. Damage like that, with broken tops still hanging in standing trees, is exactly where pruning back to sound wood or a planned removal comes in.
