Press Release
As a friendly reminder to our citizens, it is against City Ordinance 1282 to rake, blow, or move grass, grass clippings and leaves into any City street or alley. This eventually will lead to the blocking of the City’s storm drainage system.

It is open on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 4:00 p.m. until 6:00 p.m. and on Saturdays from 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. The brush/dump site accepts leaves, limbs, and yard clippings.
