City Privides
Area To Deposit
Limbs, Shrubs
Due to the severe storm,
the City Administration is
sure that all of the citizens of North Canton have
an over abundance of small
tree limbs and shrubs without any method of disposing
of them. For that reason,
the city is designating two
areas in the City to the
rear of Dogwood Park and
a portion of the Street Department land near Price
Park as an area for citizens to take their accumulation of small tree limbs
and shrubs to assist in
cleaning up our community
from this severe winter.
In turn, the City will chip
up these limbs and shrubs
and use this material in
the parks. The Admininis-
tration wants to caution that
the only type of material being accepted will be tree
Urns and shrubs and in no
way can theCity handle leaves and debris. Thes e areas
will be marked with a sign
to assist you as to the location. These locations will
be available from April 1,
1978   to   April   30,  1978.

Portage Street is out of
their way and that thetorn-
up roads are damaging the
cars. Her husband's car
