The interruption of the services that the town experienced this past year will end. The residents will once again be able to enjoy the snow removal from all streets, we will be holding a spring clean-up dump day, contribution to fourth of July fireworks display, and the budget for law enforcement will also be increased. Thank you voters! The 2011 draft budget was presented to the Board of Trustees at the September 20, 2010 meeting, a copy of which is available at town hall.

PUBLIC WORKS REPORT-NOVEMBER 2010
We have contracted with Guildner Pipeline to clean some of the older sewer lines in town. This type of frequent maintenance will ensure better flows to the wastewater treatment facility, and help prevent any blockages. Property owners are responsible for sewer laterals to the main line. In the event of a problem homeowner information is available at town hall. The weather has been beautiful but unfortunately it will snow eventually! We are prepared and have mounted the snow plow and sander to our maintenance vehicles. Thank you to everyone for taking care of their trash and pumpkins following Halloween. We greatly appreciate your efforts. The park restrooms have been winterized and are closed for the season.
