Keilholtz said, "I’d like to challenge the citizens of Liberty to get out and help us pick up trash (and) keep our Liberty Township roads looking nice," adding that it would also be "a good way to get some exercise."

He advised that those interested should wear highly-visible l clothing and be careful of any traffic.

Board Chairman Walter Barlow noted, "One thing, we did have some issues with littering in our township over the past months." Sanders Road, he said, "is a big dump spot … We have paint cans and carpet stuff thrown all over, into the woods and off the road."

Barlow noted litter signs had been posted, and littering carries a fine of $300. He asked that if anyone sees someone littering, to please contact the township police. "It is a problem in our township. I’m sure it’s a problem in just about any township."

Commissioner Keilholtz noted that those who have volunteered to pick up trash along the roads could use the municipal dumpster located at the township office "for roadside-pickup" only.

In other business, Police Chief Sherri Hansen warned residents of a phone scam regarding electric service, in which the caller claims they represent Met-Ed, and they try to collect on a (non-existing) amount of ‘overdue’ money on the recipient’s account.

The recipients of the calls are told, "Their electric bill has not been paid, and to keep the electric turned-on, they have to give them a credit card over the phone right away," noting that at least one township resident "fell for that."

She said the police department is investigating, but cases like this are challenging to solve. However, the chief stated, "We have a decent lead on that," adding that it appears the call originated in New Jersey.

She said Met-Ed is aware of the scam and has sent out notices of the fraud in the mail and their bills.
