Spring has finally arrived after a long, ugly winter! The time has come for getting out those rakes and lawn mowers for the Spring clean-up that is upon us.
Due to all the rain we have had, regrettably, our Spring clean-up has been delayed. The DPW will begin brush pick-up starting Monday, May 07. This will continue throughout the month of May on Mondays. This will be posted in the newspaper as a reminder to all. We will begin evaluating the streets in the Village for paving. Paving will be done for those streets hit hardest by the winter weather.
We will also be concentrating on the clean-up of the Canal Park. With the help of all those who enjoy our beautiful park area, we can keep it clean. In the past we have had issues with vandalism and animal waste left behind by those walking their pets. It would be appreciated if everyone would pick up after their dogs and report any issues to the Village DPW at 638-6333. Law enforcement will be keeping a closer eye this year and issuing citations for those not abiding by the rules.
There will be designated areas for brush drop-off and chip pick-up created. When this area is identified, it will be advertised for those interested. Evaluation of sidewalks and curbs will be done as funding allows.
By working together, we can Spring clean the Village and help keep it looking great for all to enjoy!
