City Services: 33.5 cents of your tax dollar
The City of Dearborn uses property tax dollars to provide high quality and comprehensive services to residents and businesses. Those City services are offered using just 33.5 cents of every dollar the City collects in
property taxes. (The federally-mandated combined sewer overflow (CSO) debt millage equates to 6.3 cents of every dollar and is outlined separately here.) The other 60.2 cents of every tax dollar the City collects in property
taxes is directed to other public agencies, like Wayne County and the public schools. Although the City is the collecting agent, it has no authority over how the 60.2 cents is used by other public agencies.

Health has to do with the body
and the mind. The Dearborn
Unified High School Hockey team
exercises both. The team, with players
from Dearborn High and Edsel Ford
High, made Academic All-State during
the 2015-16 season while holding
their own in the highly competitive
Michigan Metro High School League.

A 16 oz. bottle of cola contains 27½ sugar cubes.
Of all the junk foods, sugar-sweetened beverages are the
most detrimental to your health. Carry a reusable water bottle
with you at all times and refill it throughout the day.
The bottle serves as a reminder to stay healthy and hydrated.

For those of all ages and fitness
levels, a healthy lifestyle is just a
walk away. The Dearborn Senior
Services Walking Club meets three
times a week year round at the Ford
Community and Performing Arts
Center to reap the benefits of staying
active: strong bones and muscles,
reduced risk of cardiovascular disease,
and improved mood, to name a few.
Just show up with your walking shoes
and $1 to cover the fee.

February is national grapefruit month, offering well-deserved
recognition to a fruit rich in Vitamins C, A, E, B, K, potassium,
calcium, and phosphorus. Grapefruits can help prevent
diseases such as cancer and diabetes. In addition, the citrus
fruits can curb overeating. Experts say eating half of a fresh
grapefruit before meals correlates to significant weight loss!

A healthy environment leads to
healthier lives. Recycling is one way
to take care of the Earth, and the City
of Dearborn and Dearborn Public
Schools began a pilot program in 2016
to increase recycling in academic
buildings. Bryant Middle School and
Long Elementary were among the first
to embrace the expanded opportunity
to reduce, reuse and recycle.

APRIL
Staying happy and healthy sometimes can
be as easy as child’s play. In 2016, the City
dedicated a 3,300-square-foot playscape at
Crowley Park, adding to other playground
equipment and a seasonal splash pad at the
site, and children from the neighborhood and
from Long Elementary School tested it out
with enthusiasm. The city has more than 40
parks, which means plenty of opportunities to
swing, slide, climb and even twist and shout.

Burning body fat and lowering your body mass index (BMI)
can be achieved by steadily exercising on an empty
stomach early in the morning. If you cannot carry a
conversation during exercise, you are overworking.
Incline walking at 3-3.5 mph is an effective way to exercise.

MAY
Bicycling can be enjoyed by people
of all ages and fitness levels, and is a
great family activity. Touring our city’s
tree-lined streets at a leisurely pace is
both scenic and healthy. It is possible
to do that every Wednesday beginning
in May, when the Healthy Dearborn
Walk and Rolls launch from city parks
throughout our community. Tune up
your bike now, or stretch your legs,
to be ready for the weekly fun.

Riding tricycles and petting puppies,
kids see Dearborn’s Safety Town
program as the ultimate recess. But
at the same time they learn valuable
lessons about protecting themselves
from harm from weapons, fire and
electricity, and staying safe on
sidewalks and streets. The program,
sponsored by the Dearborn Outer
Drive Kiwanis, runs in June and is
open to children ages 4-6.

Grill “fat-sensibly” in the summer months.
Avoid the highly saturated fat in marbled meat and instead
go for the healthier grilled fish or chicken breast. Go green
- and every other color - with fruits and vegetables. Choose
whole grain, high-fiber rolls and breads, and try to cut back on
commercially baked pastries to preserve your health!

Dunworth Pool at Levagood Park is
a great place for avid swimmers and
a perfect site for competitive meets.
Along with all the outdoor pools in the
city, it’s also a favorite destination for
summertime fun. Young children can
enjoy the pools and cool off at the
city’s splash pads, just like the group
of friends shown below.

Drinking water at the correct time maximizes its
effectiveness on the body. Drinking two glasses of water
after waking up assists in activating internal organs, digestion
and blood pressure. Also, one glass of water before bed
aids in preventing strokes and heart attacks.

Beyond its beauty, Dearborn’s
diverse nature also offers a learning
opportunity. The University of Michigan
– Dearborn’s Young Naturalist
Program has used the campus’s
Community Organic Garden to
cultivate young minds for over two
decades. The program, hosted by
the Environmental Interpretive Center,
pairs students and alumni with kids
to help them discover the goodness
of homegrown food and the
wonders of nature.

Fall is harvest time for many fresh foods.
Always strive to make half your plate fruits and
vegetables, and consider grabbing fruit to eat on the go.
Eating fruits and vegetables can help manage
your weight and protect from chronic diseases
including stroke and certain cancers.

It is a refuge during hot summers
and a sight to behold during the
fiery color changes of fall. The Rouge
River is an oasis running right through
the heart of Dearborn. Cast your
lures, row your canoes and dip
your toes now, before the winter
comes. Its serenity, however, can
be enjoyed year round.

One in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their
lifetime. The best protection is early detection and yearly
mammograms after the age of 45. Factors that can help lower
the risk of breast cancer include exercising, maintaining a
healthy weight, and abstaining from smoking and alcohol.

Humans spend 1/3 of their life sleeping.
As daylight-saving time ends, do not be discouraged

getting enough sleep helps prevents chronic

Take a seat and get moving.
Really. Chair exercises and chair
yoga classes offered by Dearborn’s
Senior Services are great opportunities
to stay in shape, especially for those
with limited mobility. Senior residents
have access to these classes and
more by visiting the Ford Community
and Performing Arts Center and
paying a $3 fee per class or

Low-impact exercises allow for great workouts
while preventing strain and muscle breakdown.
Do not let limited mobility or pain stop you from exercising.
Chair exercises, water aerobics and swimming are
great low-impact ways to stay active.

Dearborn Residents Take Pride in Caring
for Their Houses, Lawns and Gardens
www.cityofdearborn.org
The City encourages property owners to take pride in the look of their homes and yards. Well-tended lawns and gardens and well-maintained houses add to the appeal of Dearborn
neighborhoods. They also strengthen property values, which benefits people economically, in addition to providing a nice quality of life. Excellent examples of home owners who take
pride in their property are found in the photographs on this page. Comprehensive rules for maintaining property in Dearborn can be reviewed at www.cityofdearborn.org. To help
everyone meet Dearborn’s basic standards, here is a summary of some of the most important tasks.
No litter allowed
• Please pick up litter on your property, even if it doesn’t belong to
you. Pitch in to keep our City beautiful by picking up litter in your
neighborhood.
Report graffiti
• The City addresses unsightly graffiti promptly.
Call Neighborhood Services at 943-2161.
Building permits
Nancy and George Miko of Olmstead stay on top of their chores
so that their produce garden is well-maintained.
Grass and landscaping
• Keep grass and weeds cut to six inches or less. This includes trimming
along all fence and property lines and easements.
• Trim trees, bushes and landscaping so that they are not in the way of
people walking on the sidewalk or vehicles driving in the street.
• Gardens for vegetables and fruits must be in the back yard, not the
front yard.
• Check with the Property, Maintenance and Development Services
Department at 943-2442 to see if your home construction project
requires a building permit.
• Permits and inspections ensure that safety is maintained and
building codes are followed. Construction work done properly means
neighborhood standards are preserved.
• If you believe construction work is taking place without a permit,
call 943-2460 during business hours, or 943-3030 at other times.
Latife Ghotime of Sylvan is proud of her showpiece
flower garden.
Sidewalks
• Make sure your sidewalks are clear of snow and ice in the winter,
and leaves in the fall.
• Don’t park your vehicles across sidewalks.
Keep your property free of “junk”
• Don’t store “junk,” like cars parts, motors, appliances, used wood,
bricks, or discarded furniture on your lawn or porch.
• Don’t store recreational vehicles, trailers, and boats on your property.
• Don’t park on grass.
Home owners should rake their leaves from the sidewalk,
and sometimes volunteers can help, like these
teenagers from the Dearborn Key Club.
Walter Bankwitz of N. Rosevere keeps his
flower garden looking good.
Barbara Anderson of Outer Drive finishes her
mowing by sweeping up the grass clippings.
Andy Sarna of Snow makes sure to edge
his lawn, as well as mowing it.
Tony Wade of Rowe uses a manual mower to cut
his grass in an environmentally-friendly way.

Public Service Days allow the City to provide services like trash collection, street sweeping, tree trimming, sewer maintenance
and loose leaf collection in a safe, effective manner.
What are my responsibilities on Public Service Days?
• You must keep your parked vehicles off the street from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on your neighborhood’s Public Service
Days, even if your trash has already been picked up.

may also be subjected to towing.
How do I know what Public Service Day section I live in?
Public Service Days sections are the same as your neighborhood’s trash pickup section.
See the map above.

Where can I get more information about Public Service Days?
Visit www.cityofdearborn.org or call 943-2886. For parking issues, call 943-2276.
Snow Removal
Move Parked Vehicles Off The Street
When Plows Are Out
Pilot parking program during snow emergencies
Snow plowing is more effective and safer when parked vehicles are off the
roads. So you should move your parked vehicles off the street each time a
heavy snowfall is predicted. If the City declares a snow emergency, then
you MUST remove your parked vehicles from the street or you could be
ticketed and your vehicles could be towed. Police do not issue warnings.
In general, a snow emergency will be declared when it is predicted that
snowfall will exceed 3 inches or more over a short period and other weather
conditions are unfavorable.
The City once again will be offering a temporary parking option during
snow emergencies on designated streets for residents in neighborhoods
in southeast and northeast Dearborn. Signs have been posted on the
streets available for temporary parking during snow emergencies.
Visit www.cityofdearborn.org for full details or call 943-2285.
Snow Emergency Alerts
When a snow emergency is declared, find out via: Snow Emergency
Hotline: 943-2444, the City’s emergency warning sirens, TV and radio news
reports, www.cityofdearborn.org, Nixle alerts (sign up at Nixle.com),
Facebook (cityofdearborn), Twitter (cityofdearborn) and CDTV.
Leaf Collection Information

From The Mayor
Dear Friends:
The City of Dearborn takes great pride in being a welcoming
community and promoting opportunities for our residents and
visitors to be active and engaged. This calendar showcases
some of the many ways to stay fit and well throughout each
season of the year.
In fact, the theme of our 2017 calendar is “Healthy and Happy in
John B. O’Reilly, Jr.
Dearborn”, which is in line with the Healthy Dearborn initiative
organized by the nonprofit Beaumont Health, the City of Dearborn,
the Dearborn Public Schools and other community partners. The coalition wants to promote the overall
health of our city, and is focusing on these five areas: healthy schools, healthy worksites, healthy foods,
healthy at play and healthy transportation.
Listed each month are numerous activities for all ages. Enjoy browsing at the Farmers Market, canoeing
in the Rouge River, running on the Gateway Trail, taking a class at our Ford Community & Performing
Arts Center, or biking in our neighborhoods. The photos in the calendar are a testament to how
accessible healthy opportunities are in Dearborn.
And, as always, you will also find in this calendar phone numbers to reach us, and information about
how your tax dollars are allocated for the City services you depend on.
I look forward to seeing you around our City at the many great events we have planned. Best wishes for
a healthy and exciting 2017!
Sincerely,
John B. O’Reilly, Jr.
