IT'S TREE TIME!! The City of Petersburg has received a $750 matching tree planting grant from DTE Energy and the Michigan DNR. The City will be planting trees in the right-of-way beginning in mid-October. At that time, it will also celebrate its Arbor Day. The city forester has found that planting trees in the fall will garner a higher survival rate than planting them in the spring. A list of trees is available at City Hall.
Property owners wishing to have a tree planted in the right-of-way, please contact the City at 279-1210 or stop by City Hall.
This tree planting project was supported in part by a grant from the Michigan Department of Natural Resources, Urban and Community Forestry program and the DTE Energy Foundation.
CITY DUMP OPEN. The City dump has reopened for YARD WASTE ONLY for City residents only. Please note the dump is being monitored by camera.
BLIGHT- Please be aware that the Blight Ordinance will be enforced in the City of Petersburg. If you receive notice that you are in violation of the Blight Ordinance, and the situation is not remedied within 10 days, or a hearing has not been requested within 10 days (in writing), the blighting condition may be remedied by the City, and the cost assessed against the property. The full ordinance can be read by clicking HERE.
Announcement: The City of Petersburg asks that you please refrain from burning leaves within the city during 11:30-3:00 on school days especially if you live near the school. The smoke has become a problem for some of our children. We appreciate your cooperation. Thank you for keeping our children safe and happy!
If you must burn, do not burn in the street-it damages the asphalt (City ordinance).
