Appropriate Usage of Town Property

With the approaching Spring and Summer nice weather, I would like to remind our residents about the policies related to the resident’s access and use of the Town property located @ 1421 Scottsville – Mumford Road. Please note the following:

  1. This site is made available to Town of Wheatland, Outside of the Village of Scottsville residents only. Village of Scottsville residents should contact the Village office or the Village DPW for drop off at their site. Village of Scottsville tax dollars do not support the maintenance of the Town site
  2. The Town site is for yard debris, brush, wood chips, lawn clippings, leaves, and other similar items
  3. Building and construction debris is NOT PERMITTED. This would include items such as fencing, concrete blocks, asphalt, lumber, etc.
  4. Removing stone, millings and topsoil FROM the Town site is ONLY permitted with approval of the Town Highway Superintendent.
  5. If a Town Outside of the Village resident has hired a landscape company and been charged for disposal, it does NOT come to the Town site. Such practice has occurred with the cost then being born by all Town outside of the Village residents when it is time to clean up the site.
  6. NO landscape companies are permitted to enter and dispose of spoils and debris on the Town land without permission of the Highway Superintendent.

The Town Supervisor and Highway Superintendent would like to keep this property open and accessible to the public, but with continued misuse, the current ability to access on your schedule could be limited or eliminated. We encourage everyone to abide by the above policies and report any observed or suspected misuse of our trust and facility. A name or license plate number is always helpful in reaching out to the individual or company. Such a situation was observed and called out by the Supervisor last year. It turned out to be a landscape company from another town not even doing work in Wheatland. Please help us to maintain our current practice. Thank you for you cooperation.
