OLD TOWN HOUSE PARK

Work Begins at Old Town House Park
Southern Maine Forestry Services will begin work on Monday, November 21st at the Old Town House Park. The scope of work will be to cut stem treatment along the water’s edge.  They will be cutting shrubs with a chain saw and will be applying herbicide directly to the stumps.  Since the application of herbicide is made directly to the stump of the shrub, a very targeted area, the park will remain open and does not need to be closed during this phase.  There will be signs around the work area.
