With storms amid SWFL, neighbors are concerned a damaged power pole could cause even more problems if isn’t fixed fast.


The downed pole and wires are in Andrea Roark’s yard.
“There’s a pole hanging there, suspended by Centurylink lines, and if we get a strong windstorm, then they’re gonna create a serious issue,” said Roark.
She is frustrated after a county waste truck came down Orangewood Drive over a week ago and knocked down a power pole and wires.
“It scares me,” Roark said.
Crews got the power back on, but the damage got left behind.
Roark isn’t the only one concerned about the downed pole and wires. Her neighbors are also wondering what’s taking so long.
