On October 19th, Owen Tree Service, Inc. sent a crew to help the Imlay City WWTP. The flagpole has been at the WWTP for some time and was in dire need of new hardware.
The man pictured at the top of the 25ft pole is crew leader Jon Ethier. The City would like thank Owen Tree Service, Inc. for getting a crew out the day after the call and the crew for doing a great job
