Martin Cleanup Days scheduled for Saturday, May 23

Martin Village and Martin Township will have their annual spring cleanup day from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, May 23.

This, despite recent state orders against people gathering in large numbers during the COVID-19 pandemic, which has caused nearly 5,000 deaths in Michigan and more than 80,00 fatalities nationwide.

Residents are urged to line up to dump their refuse in one of five dumpsters that will be provided to the township by CDR at a cost of $395 for that day alone

The annual cleanup days usually is held earlier in May, but this year it has been delayed because of the Coronavirus.
