The North Judson Town Council members were updated last week on recent town clean-up efforts.
Clerk-Treasurer Andrew Rowe said the town clean-up event on May 7 resulted in five, 40-yard dumpsters full of discarded unwanted items. He noted that Town Marshal and Code Enforcement Officer Kelly Fisher worked to help residents get rid of large, unwanted items by helping get those items hauled away from properties.
“This is great way to help remedy some of those properties in town that have some trash or rubbish on it that needs to be removed,” said Rowe. “It was really a successful event this year. She’s been doing a lot around town for those clean-up efforts.”
Rowe said Fisher has been keeping an eye on yards with tall grass as it is in the town’s ordinances as a nuisance.
Rowe continued, “Grass is growing faster than it does all season right now so it’s becoming an issue. She’s been out tagging and informing property owners that they’ll need to get properties cleaned up or we’ll go through the process of mowing liens.”
Rowe added that the Police Department has gotten a lot of loose dog complaints and are handling those on a case-by-case basis.
