ANNOUNCEMENTS/UPCOMING EVENTS
APRIL 2026
WHAT MAKES A COMMUNITY THRIVE and WELCOMING
It takes INVOLVEMENT and PRIDE in your surroundings by ALL living in that community. YES, sometimes that involves money by supporting your local businesses who in turn support your community through Sales Tax collected and returned to the City’s General Fund.
There are also other means of supporting your community such as becoming an ACTIVE member of your local Volunteer Fire Department, Emergency Medical Service, using your local post office and above all supporting your local school system.
PRESENTATION of your property or property owned by you plays a HUGE part in this. As it has been said before, IT IS TIME TO CLEAN UP YOUR YARD.
DUMPSTER FOR METAL ONLY
DURING APRIL, a dumpster will be available for METAL ONLY drop-off. The dumpster will be located at the site where the recycling trailer use to be parked. If an item is too large for you to bring to the dumpster, please call Lee @ 620 285-9000 and he will come pick it up
