Does the City have a yard waste program?
Yes. Yard waste (except stumps) is picked up on the curb every
week between April 1 and October 31. Grass clipping must be bagged
in brown paper bags or cardboard
boxes. Tree branches and limbs (up to 6 inches in
diameter) will be picked up. Tree stumps and tree branches over 6
inches in diameter will not be picked up. In the fall, the City has
a leaf collection program. The City places an advertisement in the
local paper every fall to provide the leaf pick-up schedule. The
City will pick up yard waste during the summer on your regular trash
collection day. For

Between November 1st and March 31, the City does not normally

provided for an additional fee. Residents can find more about

Does the City have a household hazardous waste program?
The City sponsors a household hazardous waste program in the
spring of each year. The program usually runs the first full week of

household hazardous waste to the City Garage where the City will
dispose of selected household hazardous waste. For more information,
