The Washington Street Department is reminding Washington residents about city ordinances when it comes to trimming trees.

Anyone hired by a property town to trim or cut trees must obtain a permit from the city before doing the work. Cleanup and removal of limbs and debris must by done by the hired contractor or the landowner.  If the landowner cleans up they are reminded to stack the limbs in the same direction for pick up by the street department.

For more information you can call the department at 812.254-4564.

Also, a reminder that the department will be out spraying for mosquitoes 3 to 6 am tomorrow.
