Tree Trimming & Utility Safety
Overgrown vegetation around power lines causes outages and fire risk. We advocate for proactive trimming.
Problem Overview
Glades Electric Cooperative is responsible for right-of-way management on its lines. Residents can request trimming schedules and report hazards.
Why It Matters
Reliable power keeps wells running, refrigeration working, and families safe during storms.
What Residents Can Do
- Report hazardous vegetation to Glades Electric
- Attend cooperative member meetings
- Track outage frequency in your area
