Where it is

It mentions the upscale homes off Fortson, Wooldridge and Whitesville roads.
The 2019 tornado
The tornado of March 3, 2019 crossed the Chattahoochee from Alabama into Muscogee County, then reached low-end EF3 strength between Barin and Fortson, where it toppled a large cell tower. In Harris County it reached EF2 as it paralleled State Route 315, snapping or uprooting countless trees.
Which rules apply
Most of Fortson is in Harris County, so ask the county about tree or clearing rules and debris service. The part inside Columbus follows the city's rules. Larger wooded tracts here may be worth a call to a Georgia Forestry Commission county forester about pine health first. See pine beetles.
Nearby, requests also come in from Midland, Hamilton, Phenix City, AL, and from Columbus itself. See every area.
