As we slowly thaw out from this recent bout of extreme cold, I want to extend a grateful thank you, for your continued patience during our recent snow events. Your Commission works behind the scenes to evaluate forecasts, request plows and salting and balance the budget accordingly.
Our snowplow vendor had a massive misfortune in having almost all his regular snow plowing equipment break down during the worst of the snow. They were able to redirect and use somewhat unconventional equipment (skid steer) to clear up
and remediate the issues. I know the courts/cul-de-sacs had massive problems and we have relayed that info. We hope to see an improvement going forward for the rest of the snow season. Thanks to those that helped neighbors out that needed an extra hand and that checked in on their neighbors.
Time is running out to pay your annual user fee and maintain your garbage and recycling pickup at the group rate. Your timely payment ensures that we can continue to provide the favorable Rumpke rate and continue your trash, yard and recycling pickup services. Checks can be mailed in or delivered in person to City Hall on Tuesday or Thursday 10am - 2pm when Barbie or Pat have office hours.
I’m looking forward to seeing the sun and having warmer weather soon. We plan on having another Spring Fling event, spearheaded by Commissioner Michels. Keep an eye out for more details. Here’s to hoping the worst of the weather is behind us in February!
Sincerely,
Matt Hammond
Mayor, Meadow Vale
