Due to infestation from the Emerald Ash Borer, a number of trees have been removed from Memorial Park. Unfortunately most of the trees at Memorial Park are Ash trees and have been affected to the point of being beyond treatment. The Borough has removed trees along the path from the covered bridge to White Oak Road. The remainder of the wooded area north and south of the path is closed to the general public for safety reasons.

All of the Ash trees will be removed with the Memorial ParK stream restoration project (see above), with many of the trees being repurposed for the stream bank stabilization proess.  New, suitable trees will be planted as part of this project, and new walking paths will also be constructed.

Plans are underway for a veterans’ memorial at Memorial Park. For more information

IMPORTANT! Please remember that trash of any kind is not permitted to be placed into the yard waste or leaf bags! Placing trash with the yard waste is illegal, and will also jeopardize the Borough’s ability to continue to offer this service to our residents.
