Spring Yard Clean up
If you have yard waste, such as grasses, tree branches, twigs, etc., call either Roger at 525-2104 or the clerk’s office to arrange for disposal.
It will be the grass mowing season soon, just a reminder that all platted lots in the Village must be mowed when the grass exceeds 12 inches in height and must be kept free of noxious weeds in accordance with Village Ordinances 8-1-4, 8-1-5, and 8-1-6. Violations of the ordinances will result in the Village having them mowed and the property owners billed. All bills not paid will be levied as a Special Charge on the next tax roll.
Do not blow grass clippings into the gutters when mowing. These clippings wash into and clog up the storm sewer catch basins and are unsightly on the streets.
Please Note: It is not allowed to discharge your sump pumps into the sanitary sewer system. Any questions, contact Roger at 525-2104.
