The City of Coos Bay has contracted with Patrick Myers’ Tree Service for the removal of a dangerous tree in Mingus Park located near the picnic shelter. On May 19th, a certified arborist assessed the tree and determined it was infested with turpentine beetles, in poor health, and would be a continually increasing safety hazard. Patrick Myers’ Tree Service is scheduled to begin work on Tuesday, September 29th at 7:00 a.m. The removal of the tree will require the use of heavy equipment, so please use caution in the work area. Should you have questions, please feel free to contact Public Works and Community Development Operations Administrator Randy Dixon at (541) 269-1181 ext. 2201 or email: rdixon@coosbay.org Thank you.
