Final action will Be taken on Monday, Sept. 26, by a mo- Qlon made by trustee Bob Zahn and unanimously approved by the remaining trustees, all of whom were present. ) A report was made 'by the road committee concerning our village signs which were repainted and installed. Because of the prohibitive cost of fixing road at the intersection of Park View, aotioh on this project will be delayed for the "resent time. Our roads were oiled which has improved many bad places, and more road work in the nature of seal coating will be completed before winter, according to commissioner Don Parenti. Bids for this work will be opened at the next meeting. Good news in the finance department! All current and outstanding bills against the village will be paid as a result of a motion made and passed without dissent. A very fine recommendation was made by Mrs. Laurence Anderson when, suggestions were solicited from the audience. She asked if it would be possible to obtain an overhead light at the intersection of the f:cCullom Lake Road and oute 31. This is a very bad AND very dark corner and illumination would be much appreciated. The next meeting will be held this Monday, Sept. 26 at 8 p.m. in the beachhouse. The public is invited. Letters Dispatched to Householders w* There have been many violations of the garbage disposal ordinance, according to police chief Larry Murray.

Refuse must be stored in the proper type of container with an airtight cover-- a maximum of 30 gal. Papers, only, may be burned in the proper receptacle. Cans may be placed on the street only on collection days-- Mondays--and then <stored in _an out-of-the way place. ^ With the compliance of every householder, our village will be a place of beauty.
