Yesterday, crews worked on creating a new bump out around this large healthy tree on School Street to allow safe passage. 🌳We are working on getting the street prepared for final paving the week of June 23rd, more info to come.

....And sidewalks poured, we will also be adding porous flex pave behind the tree to allow the roots to continue to grow now that that area is no longer needed for passage.

Did you know that grass and lawn clippings in our waterways are a source of nutrient pollution? When grass clippings decompose, they release Phosphorus into the water, causing fish kills and algae blooms that are toxic to humans and wildlife alike. Pls dispose of grass clippings.
