Bexley has over 400 ash trees on City property and is in the process of determining the extent of the damage to those trees so a plan can be implemented. While destruction of infected trees will be required, the plan will include treatment to prevent further infestation. A final plan will be in place in approximately 30 days.

Residents with ash trees on their property – or those who don’t know if they have ash trees - are advised to contact a qualified arborist for advice.
