The Grand River Conservation Authority (GRCA) spent $60,000 to $70,000 to clear away tree hazards and repair hydro infrastructure after a severe windstorm on May 4.
The power was out in many locations.
Two hydro poles were broken at Elora Gorge and a large tree near the entrance to Brant Park took out the hydro lines. Another tree fell onto the hydro lines at Pinehurst Lake.
In most cases the power was restored quickly.
Brant, Pinehurst Lake, Shades Mills, Elora Gorge and Rockwood parks experienced the most severe tree damage.
