The swales are maintained by the property owner or their agent. The Town has recently placed a moratorium on new tree plantings in the swales due to the development of a new storm water masterplan. Tree plantings already require a permit, so please do not plant anything in your swale unless you have an approved permit. Improper plantings in the swale can hurt the drainage ability of the swale, and contribute to flood-like conditions in the area.

If the tree is on private property or in the swale, the property owner is responsible. The Town does have the authority to trim back trees that are a traffic safety hazard.

A special pickup $35 fee is charged when garbage or trash is put out for collection and picked up on the wrong day. Also, if your trash or vegetation pile exceeds 20 cubic yards, you will be charged a special pickup fee of $35.00 plus the cost of disposal at the landfill (which is based on weight).
