The Village has been advised that ComEd will be performing routine vegetation management in parts of Deerfield within the next three months. If you have concerns or have trees you maintain yourself, please contact ComEd at 800.334.7661. For more information, visit ComEd's website. 

Vegetation management activities are a key component of ComEd’s maintenance program to ensure system electrical reliability, as vegetation contact with ComEd equipment is a leading cause of outages. ComEd has sent notification to any affected customers and property owners. View the tree trimming map here.
