Please be safe out there today. The snow storm has hit and is creating visibility concerns. Please note that it is dangerous to initiate a snow clearing program during a storm when visibilities are reduced. The snow removal team will be out once it stops snowing , and winds slow down.
The North Grove council would like to thank Terry for the exceptional effort and care he provided our Village as our contractor. We appreciate all the work that you have done for our Community and wish you all the best in your future endeavours.
We are asking residents to please remove all personal items/vehicles/boat trailers/campers, etc. from along the side of the roadway over the weekend.
