Municipal Taxes

This is a reminder, for residents that have their taxes paid,
Thank You. For residents who are in arrears there are stricter measures
enforced. The deadline for taxes to be paid in full is October 31, 2015. If
water has to be cut, there will be a $100.00 hook-up fee before it is turned
back on.
Parsons Pond Festival
|
Due to circumstances
and surrounding issues at Hill view Park during the festival. If this kind of
behavior continues, Sports and Recreation will have a difficult time obtaining
a liquor license to sell beer and liquor for this yearly event. That will be a
shame, the Sports and Recreation has spent lots of money providing recreation
facilities for this community and we all hope it will not have to come to an
end because of improper behavior.
Kids Live Well Marathon
|
Over the past six weeks the summer students have been

Vandalism
|
It has been reported to the town council, decorative knobs
that were screwed on the flower pots at the pull off sites have been stolen.
The town tries to keep the sites attractive for people to use. This is very
disrespectable to the town.
The wire fencing around the lagoon is also being tampered
with. There is a steel post gone and the wire fence is falling down around it.
If anyone see or know of someone that maybe responsible for this kind of
vandalism, please contact the town council office.
