ASSESSED VALUES The Assessor’s Office is reviewing all residential property assessments this year. If your assessed value is changed, you will receive a notice in late July. The City revaluates all property once every four years to keep assessments near 100% of market value and provide for equity. The best evidence of market value is a recent arm’s length sale of your home and arm’s length sale of comparable homes. Comparable sales are similar in location, style, age, size, condition, quality and amentities. Please stop by the Assessor’s Office if you would like to review sales of homes in your neighborhood. The City’s Open Book session and Board of Review will be held in July and August, with dates/times to be listed on July assessment notices. If you have evidence of your home’s market value that you would like the City to consider, please contact the Assessor’s Office prior to the Board of Review at 920-8325850 or webas@appleton.org.

Page 6 | APPLESource GARBAGE www.appleton.org • GARBAGE PICK UP is done weekly from City-supplied garbage carts. f Place your City garbage cart out for pick up the night before your scheduled day (between 5 P.M. and 3 A.M.). f The handle of the garbage cart should face your house. f Place your cart at least 5 feet from other objects on the terrace such as other garbage or recycling carts, mailboxes, trees, etc. Garbage trucks need this space for the truck arms to grab the cart. f Do not park vehicles in front of or near carts. f Never place a cart in the road. This is always a safety concern and in winter does not allow plows to clear snow close to the curb. When there are snow banks, place the cart in your driveway apron opening or clear an area on your terrace to allow crews access to your cart. Do not place carts on snow banks. f Any bags that cause the lid not to close on City garbage carts are considered to be extra garbage. (See the next section for details.) f Return your cart to its storage area by midnight the day of pick up. f Please use plastic bags for items inside City garbage carts. f Check www.appleton.org “My Neighborhood” (under “City Highlights”) for garbage and recycling pickup days specific to your address. If your garbage cart is too small, too large or needs repair, the property owner should call 920-832-5580. • EXTRA GARBAGE BAGS – Because garbage cart charges are based on volume, bagged garbage or trash that doesn’t fit in your cart must be marked with a disposal sticker. Bags should weigh less than 45 pounds. f Unlimited bags of extra household garbage are picked up each week with a $4 per bag disposal sticker. f Put extra bags approximately 5 feet from garbage carts. f The disposal sticker should be attached to bags and be visible to drivers. • APPLIANCE TAGS, PUNCH TICKETS & DISPOSAL STICKERS are available at the locations: All Appleton Fire Stations #1-700 N.

For more information on recycling mercury products visit the Outagamie County Solid Waste and Recycling website at www.RecycleMoreOutagamie.org. For more information on mercury and ways the City of Appleton is working to reduce mercury in the Fox River, please visit the Department of Utilities page at www.appleton.org. AMERICAN FLAG DISPOSAL WORKING TOGETHER, WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE! As Appleton residents, we are fortunate to be surrounded by awesome water resources. Whether you live on the water or a few miles from the river, your actions impact water quality. Choose to make a difference today! Small changes to yard care practices, like sweeping grass clippings off the sidewalk back on to your lawn or picking up pet waste more frequently reduce the amount of pollution that enters the water in our area. Ready to take action? Take the Clean Water Pledge or sign up for the 2014 Fox River Cleanup being held on Saturday, April 26 at various locations in Appleton. For more information, visit www.RenewOurWaters.org. As American flags become worn or damaged, it becomes important for their disposal to be proper and dignified. The City of Appleton has placed a container at the Glendale Yard Site for residents to drop off unserviceable American flags. The City of Appleton will deliver the unserviceable flags to the American Legion for proper disposal. Visit www.appleton.org for additional information.

CITY ITEMS ON eBay POLICE INTERACT WITH COMMUNITY THROUGH SOCIAL MEDIA The Appleton Police Department (APD) believes community members are the greatest resource they have in maintaining a safe community and therefore ask that citizens notify them of crime and suspicious activity. Over the past year, the APD has used social media as a way to expand their opportunities to interact with the community. Through social media use, the APD attempts to put out helpful information in a timely manner. They also try to educate, communicate and actively involve the community in aspects of their day-to-day operations. The Appleton Police Department can be found on Facebook (Appleton Police Department) and Twitter (@AppletonPD_WI). Aside from calling 9-1-1 or the non-emergency number (920-832-5500), the APD offers Text-A-Tip if someone wants to remain anonymous while providing information on crimes, suspicious activity, drugs or gangs. By texting to CRIMES (274637) and adding the keyword APDTIPS to the start of the message, that information will be delivered anonymously to the Apppleton Police Department. The same software also allows people to receive alerts from the Appleton Police Department directly to their Smartphone or e-mail. Sign up for the alerts on the Appleton Police Department’s web page at www.appleton.org/departments. While there, you may also want to view the crime mapping feature, which shows police activity across the city of Appleton. For questions regarding the Police Department’s use of social media, please contact Sgt. Dave Lund at 920-832-5500. OVERNIGHT PARKING Why does the City of Appleton not allow overnight parking on city streets? The reasons range from operational benefits for the Department of Public Works, Police operations, to aesthetic reasons. There are various operations that the City performs that occur at night (i.e., garbage pick up, street sweeping and snow plowing), which are accomplished better and more efficiently without vehicles parked on the street. In addition, the police may note a vehicle parked on a street when responding to a call and use that information when investigating a crime. The restriction also keeps neighborhoods looking cleaner by preventing vehicles from parking on the street for extended periods of time. If an emergency arises, such as a mechanical breakdown, home or street construction or overnight guest vehicles, the police can give short-term permission to park overnight on a street. To avoid a citation for overnight parking the Police Department must be notified the day or evening needed. We are very proud of the way Appleton is a clean and safe place to live. Please help us to maintain these standards. The City of Appleton offers used and surplus equipment on eBay. Past items have included automobiles, heavy equipment, radios and survey equipment. If you wish to bid or watch items the City has for sale, visit www.appleton.org, under “City Highlights”, click on the “eBay City Surplus Items” link. This link will take you directly to the City items currently listed on eBay. www.appleton.org CITY COMPOST PROJECT CLEANING OUR STREETS The City of Appleton is producing compost from what were previously considered to be city waste products. These ingredients include: leaves, brush and biosolids from the Appleton Wastewater Treatment Plant (AWWTP). Over time the composting process converts these ingredients into a stabilized, nutrient rich material. The compost has been certified by the United States Composting Council’s (USCC) Seal of Testing Assurance (STA) program. For more information regarding the composting operation, call 920-832-5945 or visit the compost webpage on the Appleton Wastewater Treatment Plant link at www.appleton.org for residential give-a-ways and other promotional programs. Many of our storm sewers lead directly to the Fox River while some lead to retention ponds, which then lead to the river. Please remember that anything placed in the street is in reality being put into the river as well. A cleaner street means a cleaner river, a cleaner lake and a cleaner drinking water source. Washing a car or rinsing the deck of your lawn mower in your driveway puts unwanted material in our streets. Blown grass clippings, paper, trash, dog droppings, antifreeze, gas and motor oil are all unwanted materials flushed into the street and down the storm sewer when it rains. Blowing snow into the street also adds to the problem as it causes our street crews to use more anti-icing agents. The Department of Public Works removes over 3,059 tons of street sweepings from our streets each year. Help us reduce this amount and help keep our waterways clean. Remember that in spring, no yard waste should be raked into the street. See collection information on page 8. TREE FOR A TREE SEEDLING PICKUP Thanks to all who participated in this year’s “Tree for a Tree Program”.

Glendale Avenue during the following: April 4 – April 21 Friday, Saturday, Sunday & Monday 9:00 A.M. – 6:45 P.M. WATER HYDRANT FLUSHING The Public Works Operation Division has scheduled hydrant flushing weekdays between 6:30 A.M. and 4:30 P.M. If you see crews working in your area, please try to use as little, or if possible, no water for an hour. If you find discoloration in your system, stop using the water, wait about an hour, and then draw off the discolored water through a cold water tap only. Visit www.appleton.org or call 920-832-5580 with questions. TERRACE PLANTING INFORMATION Are you looking to do some landscaping on the terrace, the area between the sidewalk and the street? Special plantings on the terrace area require a Street Occupancy Permit to ensure that safety and ordinance issues are addressed. The permit must be requested for plants in excess of 3 feet in height, hedges, rocks, railroad ties, loose stone, mulch or sand surfaces and vegetable plants. For questions or to request a permit, contact the Department of Public Works at 920-832-6474. This permit needs the approval of the Municipal Services Committee and Common Council. For tree planting and other terrace tree maintenance concerns, contact the City Forestry Division at 920-832-5580.

Bikes are healthy because they encourage children to exercise and provide a greener mode of transportation. However, if not handled properly they can be dangerous. In “Learn to Drive Your Bike”, children will work through stations learning everything from bike inspection (ABC check), how to avoid hazards, balance, scanning and signaling to entering the road safely and practicing in traffic. Instructors will follow the curriculum from the League of American Bicyclists. LOCATION: Franklin Elementary School Multi-Purpose room, 2212 N. Jarchow Street, Appleton FEE: $25/resident, $50/non-resident CLASS GRADE DAY DATES TIME CLASS # Learn to Drive Your Bike Grades 4-8 TU, TH June 17–July 17* (8 classes) 12:30 - 2:00 p.m. 312309-T1 *There will be no class July 1 and 3. BIKE RODEOS The Bike Rodeo will teach your child the basic skills needed to bike safely on the road. Stations will include looking back without swerving, riding straight while missing potholes and crossing busy streets safely. Other stations may include seeing and being seen, chaos corner, and riding safely out of a driveway. In addition, children will learn basic bicycle sizing and maintenance. Parents are strongly encourgaged to participate so they too learn “cycling road sense.” Each station will explain the “what” and “why” behind the exercise to help kids (and parents) understand why it is included in the training. This is a great opportunity for you and your child to learn safe bicycling together. LOCATION: Franklin Elementary School Playground, 2212 N.

An extensive network of trails throughout the Fox Cities offers a variety of recreational opportunities and connections to the various communities. Many of the trails are paved off-road trails, offering the opportunity to walk, bicycle, and skate on hard surface trails. Some segments are sidewalks along local streets that provide connections to the paved, off-road trails. In addition to the off-road trails, several Fox Cities communities, including the City of Appleton, have implemented on-street bike lane programs that provide striping of bike lanes on streets and signed bicycle routes throughout the Fox Cities that complement the trail network and improve non-motorized transportation opportunities for commuting and recreation. The “Trails of the Fox Cities” map identifies the trail program offered throughout the Fox Cities. Copies of the map are available at the Parks and Recreation website www.appletonparkandrec.org or at the City Hall 1st Floor Customer Service Center at 100 N. Appleton Street.
