Gates Mills

From the Mayor - July & August 2018
Monday, Aug. 20th

Our Village is looking beautiful moving into summer.  Everything is a healthy green, while flower colors are pretty and bright.

Repairs of residential fences and new plantings are really noticeable throughout our Village.  As a reminder, permits must be issued for new fences, tree cutting and exterior home alterations.    Please contact Dave Biggert with any questions prior to starting your project.  We thank everyone for their efforts.

Summer brings camp, bikes and kids everywhere in the Village.  Please provide room for them when you are passing.  We have many activities coming up this summer.  The Pink Sheet and our website are great resources for finding out what events are taking place in the Village.   The Pink Sheet can be viewed in color online and our website features a calendar of events. 

Our annual July 4th parade is always the highlight of summer.  The parade schedule is detailed in this issue. I hope to see you there!  The Community Club will have hot dogs available for purchase while you enjoy meeting some of your neighbors!

The Summer Band Concert will be held on Sunday, July 22 at 5:30 p.m. This is always a great family event.  Red Light Roxy will be performing while children can be entertained by “Flower Clown” who makes the most brilliant balloon creations!  Bring your picnic and enjoy the evening at Village Hall.  East Coast Custard will also have ice cream treats available for purchase.

With August right around the corner, we must remember schools will be starting.  Please use caution when driving through town.

Happy Independence Day and have a safe and enjoyable summer.
