RE: Trimming of overgrown vegetation along Friedensburg Road

To the owners and residents of properties along Friedensburg Road,

The Township officials want to inform all property owners along Friedensburg Road that the Township road crew will be performing its 1st mowing cycle (as per the contact the Township has entered into with PennDOT) beginning next week. The road crew will be trimming the vegetation using trimming equipment in areas where the boom mower may not be the best equipment to use in that location. If you want to have more control over the trimming of plants on your property, please contact the Township office at 610-779-6400 and the road crew can discuss the matter with you prior to cutting. You may wish to cut the vegetation yourself. If you choose to do so, please contact the office so the road crew can inspect and let you know the trimming meets the needs of PennDOT guidelines. The Township wants to reach out to you, the property owners, to work with you in providing the best visibility along Friedensburg Road for drivers, while also doing as much as possible to lessen the impact on the plant life located at your property, and also performing the tasks required by the PennDOT contract requirements. The Township appreciates your cooperation in working with us to make Friedensburg Road as safe as possible. Feel free to contact the Township office at 610-779-6400 if you have any questions.

Thank you for your attention to this matter!
