City Tree Pruning Beginning November, the City of Quincy will be pruning trees within the City right of way. This will result in temporary street/sidewalk and alley closures as crews work. Workers may be asking people parked near trees to move their cars to prevent damage and allow access to the trees. If you see crews near where you normally park, please park in a safe area away from operations. If you would prefer to prune your own tree, please contact the City at 509-787-3523 ext. 253, and request to have your tree skipped. Thank you for your patience and assistance with this operation. Howard Van Baugh Maintenance Supervisor #10007/27509 Pub: September 16, 2024 & October 7, 21, 2024

August 30, 2024 Max C. Trowbridge 13596 Rd 4 NE Moses Lake, WA 98837   RE: East Columbia Basin Irrigation District Assessment Foreclosure   Dear Max C.
