If you would like to report a problem located within the unincorporated County or something regarding a Flood Control Facility you should contact OC Public Works/Operations & Maintenance.

TREES

The County's contractor, West Coast Arborists, trims County-owned trees. (If you live on a non-incorporated residential street, County-owned trees grow in the parkway - the strip of land between the sidewalk and the street.) As per our contract, WCA follows a pre-determined, high-production schedule to keep tree trimming as cost-effective as possible. We are unable to trim trees strictly for aesthetic purposes. However, we will trim a tree if it presents a hazard, and we are usually able to respond to dangerous situations rapidly.
