The Village Board at its, meeting

for a hearing on a proposed ordin-ance
which would grant the muni*

This would include "property
upon which dried grass, weeds
brush, waste paper, and other in-flammable
materials nave been per*-
mitted to accumulate."
The proposed ordinance, number-ed
166, would be an amendment to
Ordinance 20. Civic associations
