Millenia park is private park.  It is not owned by the City of Minonk.  Jim Brown handles mowing and I would imagine he handles maintenance, but im not sure on the maintenance portion.

I'm guessing Dave will update this with specifics after tonight's city council meeting.

I ditto Jason's statement in saying Thank You!  I'd also like to thank public works for picking up the "slack". 

Jaf...I'd probably get in touch with your Alderman and maybe bring up your concerns at a council meeting.

What about recycling?

I want to thank Alderman Peterson and the rest of the council for their determination to fix this problem.

I think this a great ideal with the garbage!  Hats off the the mayor and the city council.  I have a question for anyone that can answer it, who do I contact about the maintance at Millennium Park?  I walk out there sometimes and there is a whole in the pavement near the pond.  This hole has been there for several years and is getting bigger, I am afraid someone will step in it and get hurt.  Also, I would like to know who takes care of the mowing.  I would like to see the grass clippings blown off the pavement when they are done mowing and maybe some weed eating around the trees.  This is a nice park so let's maintain it the way it should be.  I appreciate it if anyone can answer my question.

Yippee!  I'm glad the rumor going around is true.  Does anyone know if there are any restrictions (can sizes, weight limit, # of bags)?
