Placing items in parkway trees prohibited

The Village is actively enforcing restrictions against items like swings, lights, ropes and seasonal decorations placed in parkway trees. These objects can create a public hazard for passersby, as well as threaten the health of the trees. When items are observed hanging from a tree on public property, the adjacent property owner will be notified and given time to remove them before Village crews act.
