The public is always invited to attend in person at Village Hall, 100 Parkers Mill in Oswego. Comments are welcome at the beginning of each meeting.

Avoid frozen pipes this winter
Frozen pipes
As temperatures drop, frozen pipes become a serious risk, potentially leading to costly damage such as flooding, mold and structural issues. A small crack in a pipe can leak up to 250 gallons of water per day.

To help protect your home or business this winter:

✅ Plan Ahead: Insulate exposed pipes, seal air leaks and disconnect garden hoses.

✅ Take Precautions During Cold Spells: Let faucets drip, keep thermostats consistent and open cabinet doors to allow heat to reach pipes.

✅ Plan for Travel: Set your thermostat no lower than 55°F and ask a neighbor to check your home.

If your pipes freeze, it’s important to act quickly and safely to prevent further damage. For more tips and information, visit our website.
