The Ada Municipal Pool is now open for the season.
The early bird pricing for pool passes ends Monday, June 13. Through the end of the day on Monday, passes are $45 per person. If you are an Ada resident or taxpayer, you may be eligible for a $10 discount, subject to verification. That makes your pool pass only $35.
After Monday, passes are $55 per person. The $10 discount for Ada residents and/or taxpayers still applies, so passes for those individuals will be $45 per person.
Passes are only being sold at the village office this season, and hours are 8 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. Guests to the pool will need to pay daily admission rates until a pass has been issued.
Grass is flying everywhere lately, as people take to their lawns to spruce things up. Keeping grass mowed is important in the Village, as it keeps our neighborhoods looking neat and tidy, and it helps reduce the insect population. Grass, weeds or rank vegetation that is over 6 inches in height is a violation of Codified Ordinance 521.08 (e), which is one more reason why keeping grass trimmed is a good idea.
All around the nation, Arbor Day will be celebrated this Friday, April 29h. According to the Arbor Day Foundation, an estimated one million trees were planted in Nebraska on the first Arbor Day in April 1872.
In their annual tradition, Ada Tree Commission is excited to visit with Ada 3rd graders on April 29 to talk about Arbor Day and planting and caring for the trees around us. Mayor Davis Retterer once again has invited the students to be active artist participants in the celebration by drawing pictures of woodworking.
How will you celebrate Arbor Day? The Arbor Day Foundation offers some suggestions:
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.
