Have the winds of this winter helped ‘trim’ a few of your trees?
Do you need to have some limbs picked up and chipped? Now is your chance.
The village will conduct a monthly service of brush pick up/chipping and pick up on Monday, April 4.
One of the goals of brush chipping and pickup is to keep the tree lawn areas of the Village clear of debris, so that debris litter does not enter the storm sewer system.
