    Residents are instructed to pile their downed tree limbs at the curb for removal. The Highway Department estimates that it will take weeks to remove all the accumulated debris.

    There is no maximum length or weight for tree limbs to be removed.

    “If you can drag it to the curb, we will take it,” dispatcher Ted Collins told VIN News.

    Stupid remark. There was nothing that the town could have done. This was an act min Hashomayim. Roads were cleared all through the day. Trees fell and broke from the weight of the snow on trees that still had leafs on them. Orange & Rockland was another story their response time was atrocious.
