American Electric Power AEP An Energy Supplier You Can Trust. Really? Canton Ohio
Without any discussion with the homeowners in my neighborhood in North Eastmoor, AEP contracted a local tree company to cut down trees in the easement on our properties where power lines are located.
They cut limbs and large sections of the tree trunk were stacked against my wooden privacy fence and the fence of the neighbor that lives behind me. I assumed that AEP would do the right thing and remove the cut wood from our properties, however the only thing they did was to run the small branches with leaves through a chipper. That debris was removed. Our fences are beginning to lean under the weight of the stacked wood that they left.
What gives AEP the right to do this kind of costly harm to a neighborhood, at the cost of the individual home owners? We didn't ask for this activity. Why should we carry the burden of cost?
I called AEP this morning and asked these questions. While I was away from home, AEP send someone named "Paul" out who left a card in our screen door which stated again that it was the responsibility of the home owner to dispose of the wood that they left on our properties.
AEP must be made to do the right thing and complete their job by removing the wood from the trees they cut down on home owner's properties in our neighborhood. What can be done to assure that this happens?
Respectfully,
Dan Poast
