🌳 The 2026 brush season has come to a close!

This year, our DPW crew processed 685 cubic yards of wood chips from curbside brush collection!🪵🪵

Here’s what really puts that into perspective: following September’s severe storms, crews processed 400 cubic yards in just TWO WEEKS! That’s nearly as much as the entire amount processed during all of 2025!

Behind every truck load is hours of collecting, hauling, and processing tree limbs and brush.

👏 A big thank-you to our DPW crew for their hard work and dedication to keeping Howell clean and safe!

City of Howell, are you ready?! ⛸️

Over the next few weeks, you’ll watch our beautiful pavilion transform into a winter wonderland as we prepare for our FIRST ice skating season! 🎉

So, how does an ice rink come to life? First, the boards go up, then the mats go down, and finally, when Mother Nature cooperates, we’ll make ICE! 🧊

We can’t wait to welcome you for a brand-new winter experience right here in Howell! Stay tuned as we share more details about our grand opening and what’s in store for the season ahead.

🔥 A quick heads-up: Our fire features are temporarily unavailable while we complete operational enhancements in preparation for ice skating season. Thank you for your patience as we get everything ready!

Winter fun is on its way, Howell! ❤️❄️
