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 its next monthly service of brush pick up/chipping and pick up on Monday, April 3.
There is a $20 base fee for brush pick up, and will be added to the property’s active water bill. If there is not an active water bill, the property owner will be billed the fee.
Any brush in the tree lawn area is subject to pick up and billing.
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.
A workshop to help area professionals sharpen their social media skills will be held from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday, April 8 in the Pharmacy Building.
The cost of the daylong workshop, including lunch, is $150 for professionals ($130 for early registration by April 1) and $35 for current students. The workshop is hosted by the ONU chapter of the Public Relations Student Society of America (PRSSA).
