Massive debris pile gets addressed after Charlotte County residents speak out
Residents said the county initially instructed them to divide their hurricane debris into five piles in front of their homes.
However, they said that story later changed.
“They told us we’re a private community so we can’t come into your community, but if you take your debris and put it on the road, then we’ll come by and pick it up, and so we did that,” said Vice President of the Board at Windmill Village Ken Mogle. “We had a community day.”
