Friendly reminder to all Derry Borough Residents and Visitors
As summer approaches, please remember while walking your pets, please be respectful and pick up any waste your dog(s) may leave in your neighbor's yard or on public property and help keep our community clean.
It is also that time of year to start our outdoor chores such as painting, washing cars , household maintenance ect…… Please remember do not use the community storm drains as a liquid trash. Disposal of items with chemicals affects our water sources and impacts our natural streams creating a biological hazard. Help protect our environment by mindful clean up.
