DID YOU KNOW?

Beautiful Maple Trees on Lake Street May Be Cut Down

The Village of Empire is planning to remove the beautiful Maple trees lining the east side of Lake Street to install a drainage ditch for runoff from Wilco Street.

These trees are part of the beauty and character of our village. Their removal would permanently change the look and feel of Lake Street.

Your voice matters!

If you oppose removing these trees, or would like the Village to explore alternative solutions, please contact the Village of Empire office at 231-326-5466.

Speak up. Share your concerns. Help protect the beauty of our village!
