Davis Junction Snow plow operators work hard to make the Village’s roads as safe as possible for you.  Motorists are asked to help during the winter by slowing down, and keeping a safe distance from snow plowing equipment.  Don’t assume that plow drivers can see you – their field of vision is limited.  In addition, The Village of Davis Junction is asking you NOT to park your vehicles on the roadway. Thank You in advance for your continued cooperation.

Oh, the beauty of fall. The leaves turn vivid shades of orange, red and yellow. Unfortunately, the beauty loses its charm very fast and becomes the dilemma of what to do with all those leaves.

Open air leaf burning is one alternative. For most people, it’s easier and cheaper than mulching, bagging or composting. And, for some people, the smell of burning is very pleasing. To others, especially those suffering from respiratory ailments, it can be very aggravating.

Leaf burning holds at least two perils. One is the danger of the fire spreading out of control and becoming a hazard. Two, is the physically debilitating fumes given off by burning leaves. In addition, the burning pile can produce outdoor concentrations of smoke pollution – worse than the highest concentrations of smoke found around most highly polluted industrial locations.

Leaf burning typically occurs when the outdoor temperature is cold and is often conducted in densely populated areas. It generates uncontrolled pollutants at ground level under meteorological conditions that often are not favorable for good dispersion – again resulting in significant localized impacts.
