Christmas Lights & Decorations. Trash can storage.

th

The deadline for removal of Christmas lights and decoration has past per the covenants for Millstone Village. While we understand we have had cold weather and high winds, we ask that anyone who still has them visible please remove them as soon as they can please.

th

Also a friendly reminder per the Fort Wayne City code – trash can and recycling cans are to be stored 10ft from the front of the house, it does not set a good precedent to have trash can and recycling cans visible. We all wish to maintain and increase our home value so please lets keep Millstone Village looking great!

Thank you,

Millstone Village Board

SNOW REMOVAL ~ SALT BARRELS

Update: Snow barrels now have salt in them.

With winter in full swing we would like to REMIND our residents that the snow plow company we use does their best, however when vehicles are parked on the streets it hinders their ability.

Please be considerate of your neighbors and the neighborhood by parking your vehicles on your driveway when snowfall is expected. This will allow the plowers to do a better job and also eliminate possible damage to vehicles by any plow.

Also below is a link in regards to the Fort Wayne salt barrel program. When the city was called the board was told the city is still participating in leaf clean up season and that the salt barrels would be filled the week after Christmas unless they expected a significant amount of snowfall before then, in that case they would fill them sooner.

Halloween / Trick or Treaters

img_1849

Parents: if your children will be going trick or treating without you please emphasis the importance of safety to your children. Here are some tips to keep children safe in our community.

  • Stay in a group and communicate where they will be going.
  • Agree on a specific time when they should return home.
  • Only go to houses that have lights on.
  • Carry a cellphone for quick communication.
  • Remain on well-lit streets and always use the sidewalk.
  • Don’t assume the right of way, look both ways and be cautious if you must cross the street.

MOST IMPORTANTLY ~ there have been reports of suspicious vehicles in the area offering rides to children, tell your children it is never acceptable to get in a vehicle with a stranger no matter what. 

Law enforcement authorities should be notified immediately of any suspicious or unlawful activity!
