Fort Campbell, KY – Campbell Crossing, Lend Lease’s privatized family housing community on Fort Campbell, will begin removing over-grown trees and shrubs from many homes across Fort Campbell.
In an effort to promote safety and minimize damage to the exterior of homes, Campbell Crossing will be removing all over grown, un-kept, and oddly placed shrubs, trees and other plant material from around homes.
Clean Sweep will promote safety by allowing clear visibility out of windows previously blocked by over-grown trees and plants and may allow for easier access out of the window in the event of an emergency that may block traditional means of escape. Many plants in question have gone years without proper maintenance. By removing the plants and trees, Campbell Crossing hopes to minimize any future damages to homes caused by over-grown plant roots, branches, etc.
“It is also our hope that the overall beautification of neighborhoods will increase with the removal of these types of trees and plants,” Brockman said.
This tree and shrub safety clean sweep will begin in Gardner Hills on May 13th and continue to the following neighborhoods: Werner Park, Drennan, New Drennan, Stryker, Hammond, New Hammond, and Barker Court, Taylor East and West, McAuliffe Park, LaPointe and ending in Pierce, near the end June.
Residents wishing to keep trees and shrubs around their homes are required to contact their Community Office. Any trees and shrubs left at the request of the resident will become the responsibility of that resident and must meet basic minimum standards regarding landscaping around the home.
