This morning, another water main break occurred, which requires that we shut off water on York from Borgman to Concord.  When the water service is restored, please clear your water lines of any sediment or cloudiness by running the cold water for several minutes until it runs clear. 

Direct any questions or concerns to DPW by calling 248.547.1888 or emailing hwdpw@hwmi.org.

We are aware of wildlife including coyote in the area. Do not approach. Watch your pets. Keep cats indoors, and never leave small dogs outside unsupervised.

Generally, holidays do not delay Tuesday recycling/trash pickup in HW, but here is a complete list of those that will push back collection to WEDNESDAY this year:

• Memorial Day: delayed to Wed, May 31
• Independence Day: delayed to Wed, July 5
• Labor Day: delayed to Wed, Sept 6
• Christmas: delayed to Wed, Dec 27
• New Year 2024: delayed to Wed, Jan 3, 2024

After our pause in branch chipping, as leaf season has ended, the DPW will resume its branch chipping schedule for Wednesdays whenever weather permits.  We are already making a change for this coming week to accommodate all those who have had branches out: in addition to today (December 2), we will have the chipper out on MONDAY, December 5^th. We will then resume our Wednesday schedule starting on December 14. Please remember that we can accept branches with 2” minimum diameter (up to 6”) and 4’ minimum length. Smaller stuff goes into yard waste collection. This is a safety issue for our staff.
