ALPENA – Wood is now located at the Department of Public Works (DPW) facility (1001 Long Lake Avenue) near the compost area, according to a City of Alpena press release. The wood located at this lot is wood produced from the removal of city street trees.
Adjacent homeowners were given the first right of refusal for this wood, the release stated. As opposed to letting it deteriorate, the city is offering the wood to the public after completing an application.
Personal use fuel wood applications are available at Alpena City Hall in the Engineering Office, Department of Public Works, and online at alpena.mi.us at no cost.
Wood is available on a first-come-first-service basis and is available for pickup during the normal operating hours of Monday to Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. There are also railroad ties available at no charge, while supplies last.
