Severe thunderstorms struck several neighborhoods across Jacksonville earlier Monday evening, leaving a trail of destruction in their wake. Downed trees and power outages have become a common sight as residents cope with the aftermath.
David Vanderbilt, a longtime resident of Fruit Cove since 1991, explained the susceptibility of the area to such incidents. “We’ve got a lot of trees, and there are power lines going pretty close to the trees,” Vanderbilt said.
“The battle with JEA and the tree people was frustrating,” Vanderbilt recounted. “JEA said they couldn’t touch the lines until the trees were gone, but the tree people claimed they couldn’t touch the limbs until the power lines were removed.” Vanderbilt highlighted the absence of a homeowners association in their neighborhood, implying that each homeowner had to take care of their own property.
