DON'T HURT YOUR VILLAGE
You can make your neighborhood a more pleasant
place to live and increase the value of your
property. You can help the Village of Freeport
to be clean and attractive by observing the
following:
DO'S FOR HOMES AND BUSINESSES
DO maintain your home or business establishment
by painting and repairing. Village Ordinances
require painting of all wooden surfaces to pre-vent
deterioration. This is being strictly en-forced
by the Building Department.
DO maintain your garages and fences and keep
then repaired and painted. Maintain your lawns,
gardens and yards for beauty and. cleanliness.
Pick up all litter including any at curbside.
Cut down weeds between sidewalk and curb.
DO have proper rubbish and garbage receptacles
with covers in sufficient number. All contain- "'
ers must be kept/closed, including the large
commercial dumpster units. • ..
DO remove trash around your house, yard, fence
or hedge. Clean unsightly litter accumulation
from wire fences, bushes and hedges. Put out
trash at curb for Wednesday pick-up each week
(except in a holiday week when Wednesday trash
pick-ups are.-eliminated because garbage is
picked up on that day to offset the holiday).
DO call for special pick-ups for large or bulky
items, such as discarded refrigerators, stoves
and such. Put weeds, leaves, grass cuttings,
etc. in plastic bags for Wednesday pick-up.
00 use litter baskets when you are in the busi-ness
districts. Keep a litter bag in your car
or boat.
DO report vacant lots that are in need of clean-ing.
Under Village Ordinances if the property
owner does not clean his lot the Village will
have it done by a contractor and the cost will
be charged against the property.
DON'T confuse or nix trash or garbage. Trash is
burnable items only, such as paper, rags, pieces
of wood, and it is to be put out for collection
only on Wednesday.
DON'T put out excessive amounts of trash for
pick-up on one day. If you have a large amount-put
only part of it outside on any Wednesday and
hold the rest for the next Wednesday pick-up.
DON'T put trash out before 6 PM on Tuesday
night prior to Wednesday trash pick-up. DON_'T'
sweep leaves, twigs, grass clippings, etc. into
gutter. Pick them up and put them into closed
containers for trash pick-up.
If 'you are a businessman, DON'T pile boxes and
crates alongside your dumpster. Break them
down to flat unit's and put them in the con-tainers.
Use containers of adequate size to
handle all of your trash.
