...perintendent of the Mosquito Commission, said during this past winter, 1,230 tires from 145 locations in 28 different municipalities were collected. "Most of these tires have been illegally discarded some time ago and are only now being discovered,? McMorland said. ?We tend to find tires everywhere but many of these are dumped down dirt roads, behind abandoned buildings or are found in the woods where they have been sitting for years.? Removing the abandoned tires is part of the commission?s year-round mosquito control activities, McMorland said. ?Tires can hold standing water creating the perfect habitat for many mosquitoes,? McMorland said. ?Removing abandoned or illegally dumped tires not only helps to reduce mosquito levels and the threat of West Nile virus, but it improves environmental quality.? McMorland noted abandoned or illegally dumped tires can also contaminate waterways and surface water run-off."
...Mayor J Brooke Hern confirmed that he hadn't called him back. He said his problem "is with the water company. Never the less, the town is trying to help him and is doing everything it can to help him."
