Due to damages caused by the storm, Windsor Meadows Park is closed until Thursday, October 3.

Storm Report Resources

As we respond to the damage left behind by Helene, we want to share resources with property owners to assist with immediate storm repair and emergency tree removals.

A Tree Removal Permit is not required if the tree is dead, hazardous, or structurally defective (a fallen tree on your property). If the tree is in danger of falling and needs to be removed, send photos and a description of the tree to the City Arborist at arborist@sandyspringsga.gov before removal.

If you have property damage, emergency repairs are allowed. If a permit is required, please submit for the necessary permit within 24 hours or reach out to staff with questions.
