Chamber notes on street cleanliness and nuisance ground plan
The Chamber of Commerce notes improved main street appearance this week. The Village Council will gather paper and debris early each week after Saturday evenings. At a Chamber meeting it was recommended to seek other property for a nuisance ground as the current site is too close to the highway. No monthly meetings will be held in July or August.
