Birch Bluff Road

The Birch Bluff Road Street & Utility Improvement Project was awarded by the City Council on November 14, 2022. The first step of the construction phase will be tree clearing.  All trees anticipated for removal have been marked with a dot of pink paint at the base of each tree.  If residents have any questions on trees please contact City Engineer, Andrew Budde at 952.960.7900 or engineer@ci.shorewood.mn.us.  Trees will be marked with a large “X” a few days prior to the actual removal, which is anticipated to start in February. It is anticipated that trees near the power poles will be trimmed for safety in late-January. This trimming work will be done by Asplundh, coordinated by Xcel Energy. The full tree clearing work will be completed shortly following the trimming work. As part of the tree trimming, Asplundh will be trimming tree branches as needed. The tree limbs that are trimmed will be placed and stored within the Right-of-Way until Tree Top Clearing, Inc. comes and completes the tree clearing activities.
