🚛 Curbside Service Update ❄️

Crews were unable to complete today's revised route. Affected residents are asked to keep their trash and bulk items to the curb so that it can be serviced tomorrow, January 28.

To help keep our hardworking sanitation crew safe, we kindly ask residents to:
❄️Place carts on the cleared portion of the road
❄️Please avoid placing carts in snowbanks or in the yard

This helps our team avoid climbing over snow. If a cart is not safely accessible, service may be skipped. Thank you so much for your patience and for helping keep everyone safe—we truly appreciate your cooperation! ❄️💙

🚨 Safety Reminder 🚨

While it may be tempting and look safe, please stay off the ice on the lake and any other bodies of water in the city. Ice conditions are unsafe and can change quickly—even when it looks solid. Your safety comes first.
