Update: Brush pick up moved to today and Monday

FRIDAY BRUSH PICKUP UPDATE:

There has been a change in the brush pick up dates.  The contractor is in Ada today (FRIDAY) to begin removing brush from tree lawns. 

It is the village's understanding at this point that the contractor will also be in Ada on Monday to complete the pick up.  It is not yet clear if the contractor will also be in town tomorrow.

Residents are asked to place brush in the tree lawns for easier removal. Please do not park cars on the streets in front of or near brush piles, as the contractor may not be able to pick up around vehicles.
