ice storm alert
I received this alert a short time ago. Please be advised that a decision whether to cancel recycling will be made tomorrow AM and posted on the website: www.greenburghny.com. Be careful about ice and slippery conditions. I know a number of people who weren't careful during ice storms. They fell on their head and suffered serious injuries or lost their lives. Be careful.
