REMINDERS FOR LAWN CARE
This event has been cancelled.

DEAR NEIGHBORS,
AS WE WORK TOGETHER TO KEEP OUR NEIGHBORHOODS SAFE AND LOOKING GREAT, PLEASE REMEMBER TO KEEP GRASS CLIPPINGS, WEEDS, AND YARD DEBRIS OUT OF THE STREETS AND GUTTERS. WHEN LAWN CLIPPINGS ARE BLOWN INTO THE STREET, THEY CAUSE SEVERAL SERIOUS ISSUES FOR THE SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT COMMUNITY. THE DEBRIS COVERS AND BLOCKS THE CATCH BASINS; NOT ALLOWING THE WATER TO DRAIN PROPERLY. THIS ORGANIC MATTER FORMS A LAYER OVER THE GRATE WHICH ACTS AS A BARRIER PREVENTING WATER FROM ENTERING THE BASIN. BECAUSE THE WATER CANNOT DRAIN PROPERLY, IT POOLS ON STREETS AND DRIVEWAYS THAT CAN FLOOD LOW LYING AREAS AND LEAK INTO HOME FOUNDATIONS.
HOW YOU CAN HELP:
DIRECT YOUR MOWER CHUTE BACK ONTO YOUR LAWN RATHER THAN TOWARD THE STREET.
USE A BROOM OR LEAF BLOWER TO PUSH ANY ACCIDENTAL STREET CLIPPINGS BACK ONTO YOUR GRASS.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR COOPERATION IN KEEPING OUR STREETS CLEAN!
