I think the city hired local business to collect the branches gathered near the street and send them into a chipper. Today the pile of limbs I collected (mostly from my neighbors yard) was chipped up and hauled away. No idea how that gets paid for unless there's some sort of disaster fund to pull from. I thought Oregon refunded funds in excess of expenses (kicker check).

Mini Segway (Ninebot Mini Pro) and no motion smoothing.

A later video showing work crews was shot from the electric unicycle.
