Florida Power and Light (FPL) has contracted with Asplundh Tree Experts to begin trimming trees this week in Port Orange as part of routine tree and vegetation maintenance.

According to FPL, trees and vegetation are the leading cause of outages, especially during severe weather. Asplundh is a qualified line-clearing contractor, and most of the work is scheduled near Willow Run Boulevard and out toward the landfill. All tree-trimming work should be complete by the end of January.

Residents will receive advance notice should any neighborhood trimming occur on their properties.
