Congratulations!

Some of our residents may not be aware, but the Miles Township Fire Company also provides emergency medical services within our township. This is called a quick response service (QRS) and provides initial patient care until a transporting ambulance arrives. We passed our annual state inspection and renewed our license this morning.

🧹 Maintenance Monday — Make Miles Township Look Its Best
Happy Monday, Miles Twp! 🌞
A new week is the perfect time to take care of a few small tasks that help keep our community clean, safe, and welcoming.

Here are a few quick Maintenance Monday reminders:
🌿 Yard & Lawn Check — trim grass, pull weeds, and clear sidewalks to keep our neighborhoods looking sharp.
🚮 Secure Trash & Recycling — summer breezes can scatter loose items, so make sure lids are tight and bags are secure.
🌧️ Gutters & Drains — check for leaves or debris to help prevent pooling water during summer storms.
🚗 Driveway & Walkway Safety — remove branches, sticks, or tripping hazards after windy days.
🐾 Pet Areas — tidy up outdoor spaces to keep yards clean and neighbor‑friendly.

Small steps make a big difference — thank you for helping keep our municipality beautiful, safe, and welcoming all summer long. 💚

Lets Make our Township Beautiful!! Talk to your neighbors about sprucing up their properties!!!
