Da avoid unnecessery foot traffic over the mound, mow it and stay off of it. This is especially true in the winter time. Even human foot traffic can cause frost to penetrate the mound resulting in potential freezing problems. Do inspect your mound system annually for winter kill, (reseed if necessary) animal damage, (burrowing)or signs of potential failure. Do nat plant trees or shrubs on the mound system, smaller trees and shrubs may be planted at the edges. Remember,that sunshine is the key to a healthy mound system. Do ask questions, if you have any concerns or questions concerning your mound system please feel free to call me, I can be reached at 952-249-4626. 1 - -�-, �O� O O CITY OF ORONO Muaicipal Offices �,, ti 8traet Address Mailing Address: �� G�' 2750 Kelley Pazkway P.O.
