Town Hall
|
The Town Council has received complaints when there are functions going on at the Town Hall, the thermostat is getting turned up and left on high. This is not acceptable; the Town has struggled with high Hydro bills this winter and continues to do so. Please do not touch the thermostats in the Town hall they are all set at one temperature and must stay like that.
Waste Management
|
The Long Range Waste Management Site is now open to the public Tuesday to Saturday from 8:30 am to 3:00 pm.
We would like to remind residents that there is a limit of six bags per household.
You are not permitted to put your bags of garbage in another household container. We are receiving complaints that people are putting their waste in other people’s containers without permission. This is not permitted. If there is more than one household in one container inform the town office so they can notify the garbage collector.
Playground
|
The Playground area is being damaged and there are reports that kids have been seen upon top of buildings.This Playground is there to use, have fun and respect what is there not destroy it. There have been a lot of money and hard work put in this Playground so the kids can have somewhere to play and socialize with other kids. If anyone is caught damaging this property it will be their responsibility to fix and repair damages. This is also a big safety issue.
