🌳 Williamson County Ice Storm Recovery – Tree Debris Survey
📋 Williamson County is surveying residents to better understand the need for assistance with tree debris removal to the street curbside following this week’s ice storm.
📱 Residents who may need help are encouraged to text DEBRIS to 888-777 to register their address and provide details on the type and estimated amount of debris.
🤝 As volunteer groups become available, assistance may be provided where possible. Submitting this information does not guarantee service, but it will help the county assess needs and coordinate resources effectively.
Thank you for helping us support recovery efforts across the county.

Report Storm DamageWilliamson County EMA is collecting reports of storm-related damage to your residence to better understand which areas were affected by this winter storm and to support local and state damage assessments. Do not use this survey to report damage to outbuildings, trees or fences.

📝 Important to know:
•Submitting a report is NOT an application for assistance.
•This survey is for reporting damage or loss to personal residences only, not outbuildings or vehicles.
• The information helps authorities assess the overall impact of the storm.
⚡ Utility outages should still be reported directly to your electric or utility provider.
