UPDATE ON THE Rod-n-Reel Resort EXPANSION PROJECT
The engineer overseeing the Rod-n-Reel Resort expansion project recently contacted us to advise our community that they will be placing numerous test piles (less than a dozen) in Rod-n-Reel parking lot in the next week or two in preparation for renovations.  During this process expect noise typically associated with construction projects.

TOWN NEWS: 
 PLEASE DO NO DISPOSE OF FULL PAINT CANS WITH REGULAR GARBAGE
These cans might become crushed and paint will then run all over the streets.  Empty paint cans are acceptable for our trash pick-up as are cans where the paint has been allowed to dry up.  Hint:  Place inexpensive kitty litter into the cans with the liquid paint.  Leave the lid off and keep adding kitty litter until all the liquid paint is absorbed and dry.  Only then is it acceptable to throw into your household garbage.
