Elmore County to use contractor to help with tornado cleanup

Cliff Williams / The Herald The Elmore County Commission met Monday evening and approved using a contrator to help with debris removal from road right of way from the Jan. 12 tornado.

With three tornados in eight weeks, the work of debris removal has been piling up for the Elmore County Commission.

It has recently finished a second pass of removing debris from the right of way of roads in southern Elmore County related to a November tornado that killed two in northern Montgomery County before wreaking havoc in the Jasmine Hill area and Tallassee. The second struck Lake Jordan and Titus.
