Posted by Fred Steiner on Tuesday, January 3, 2017

The 2017 Republic Services refuse and recycling guide is now available in the Water Office. Many residents find it helpful to keep a copy of the calendar handy to know which day their refuse and recycling pick up will happen.

The contract the Village holds with Republic Services is in place for three years, and there are no changes planned for pick up this year. Refuse will still continue to be picked up on Tuesdays, with the possible exception of weeks in which a major holiday falls on a Monday or Tuesday.

Village Voice: Sidewalks + ice + cold temps = What do I do?

There are several options to keep you walks free of ice and snow
Posted by Fred Steiner on Thursday, December 15, 2016

While some people may look forward to snow covered trees and lawns, many of us dread icy sidewalks once the temperatures sink lower and lower.

Ada Codified Ordinance 521.06 does require walks to be kept free from snow and ice, by either the owner or the occupant of the property.

Many people start applying rock salt at the first sign of precipitation and cold temperatures. Rock salt, which is primarily sodium chloride, tends to be on the less expensive side of deicers.

However, rock salt can harm pets, plants, grass, and trees. Rock salt can also cause the sidewalks to begin breaking down, depending on the composition of the concrete used during construction.
