Utility companies (cable/internet, telephone, electric, etc.) often mark areas on residents' properties to locate service lines.
Call the Ohio Utilities Protection Service at 800-362-2764 to identify who had an area marked and for what purpose.
Flags marking service lines are color coded as follows:
Red - Electric power lines, cables, conduit and lighting cables
Yellow - Gas, oil, steam, petroleum or gaseous materials
Orange - Communication, alarm or signal lines, cables or conduit
Blue - Potable water
Purple - Reclaimed water, irrigation and slurry lines
Green - Sewers and drain lines
Pink - Temporary survey markings
White - Proposed excavating
Removal of dying street trees located within the Township right of way will be completed by the Maintenance Department upon request; however, grinding of the stump is not provided.
The Township does not replace street trees.
The location and type of animal will determine whether or not a public agency will respond to requests for removal. Review the information posted online to learn more.
Who do I contact about missed recycling or trash pick-up, and where can I pick up a recycling bin?
Recycling and trash should be on the curbside by 7:00am the day of collection. If you met this requirement, but your waste was not hauled away by Rumpke, call their customer service line for them to return to your property to remedy the error.
**Sixteen (16) gallon recycling bins can be picked up at the Township Maintenance Dept., 7049 Big Walnut Road, between the hours of 7:00 a.m.- 3:30 p.m.**
