We hope to see you there!
Important!
The City needs to know when and where all cleanups are taking place so we can coordinate pick-up the trash you collect.
- The City Wide Clean-up is for trash and litter along the streets.
- We ask everyone to separate green waste from trash as much as possible.
- This is NOT a time to clean out your basement, garage etc.
- Those items can be placed on the curb in accordance with the procedures for solid waste disposal
Please feel free to contact me at any time. Additional Information If you cannot make this meeting . . .
