Orleans urges residents to remove standing water as town continues contracted mosquito spraying
Summary
The town contracts Ron Taylor to spray for mosquitoes and council urged residents to remove standing water, discard old tires and keep gutters clear to assist control efforts for public health and safety.
Clerk‑Treasurer Robert F. Henderson told the council the town contracts Ron Taylor to spray for mosquitoes and asked residents to assist those efforts by removing standing water, discarding old tires and keeping yards clear of brush.
The minutes emphasize that keeping gutters and downspouts clean helps prevent standing water and reduces mosquito breeding sites; the item was recorded as a public-health reminder rather than a new ordinance or funding action.
