While winter has not left us yet the temperature swings increase the appearance of potholes, and until the hot asphalt plants open we are resigned to using the less effective cold patch mix. This is only temporary but in the short run can be effective. Please call our DPW at 986-3358 if you spot a pothole, and our crews will respond quickly. We will also begin sweeping our neighborhoods and intersections to remove the road grit that builds up over the winter.
Please remember there is a pill drop box in the lobby of our police station for you to safely dispose of any old medications and drugs. The police lobby is open 24 hours a day and is located to the left and down the driveway from the front of Town Hall.
I urge any resident who is seeking a vaccine to sign on to the www.orangecountygov.com website under COVID. They are working to get you the vaccine close to home.
