It's time for some timber to tumble in Wright County, and they're inviting the experts to make it happen. The county's Parks & Recreation Department wants bids from pros in the lumberjacking biz to take down trees across Otsego, Beebee Lake, and Clearwater/Pleasant County Parks. It won't be free-for-all deforestation, though—the county stipulates that bidders need to be up to snuff with safety and are ready to pay state prevailing wages.
So, if you've got the gear and the gumption, you might be in luck, but just remember: while chasing those canopy-dwellers, you have to keep a tight ship. The folks in charge of this arboreal upheaval are none other than the parks department, and they're not just looking for anyone with an ax and a truck. Now, according to a notice posted by Wright County Parks & Recreation, the gears of this project will stop grinding when the clock strikes 2 p.m. on Monday, October 7.
Tree removal isn't the sort of work you want to leave to chance, so the call is out for "contractors qualified to safely remove trees," as the county's message states. It's all about striking that balance between nature's beauty and keeping the public spaces open and safe for everyone to enjoy. If you think you've got what it takes to fell these leafy giants properly, reach out to Matt Detjen—and fast.
