September 1, 2024. Within the coming weeks, tree clearing will be taking place within the Village right of way and BP Pipeline easements in northwestern Homer Glen. BP Pipeline has contacted property owners along their easement to negotiate the tree removals and will be working with property owners to preserve trees that are not directly impacting the pipeline. Clearing will take place in the Village right of way located between S Elm Street and Chicory Trail from 143rd Street up to 139th Street. Clearing will also take place east of Longview Drive from 139th Street to the Village’s northern border. Crews were on site 8/26 – 8/30 walking the easement and marking trees for removal. Mobilization and tree removal is expected to begin in early September.
If you are a resident who’s property abuts the BP Pipeline or Village right of way shown in the map below that has not been contacted by BP Pipeline, or if you have any other questions regarding the clearing please reach out to Engineering at the Village of Homer Glen.
