YOU ASKED, WE LISTENED! ♻️
We heard from many residents that a consistent recycling schedule would make it much easier to know when to roll those blue carts to the curb and we agree!
Beginning in October, Republic Services recycling will be collected on the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of every month.
📅 September Recycling: Wednesday, September 16
♻️ October & Forward: 1st & 3rd Wednesday of each month.
No more trying to remember an every-other-week rotation. Same schedule. Same days each month. Easier to remember.
Please help us spread the word by sharing this update with your neighbors!

🌳 SWEPCO Tree Trimming Notice 🌳
⠀
Residents may notice trees being marked by SWEPCO in preparation for upcoming tree trimming and vegetation management work around power lines.
⠀
SWEPCO regularly trims trees and manages vegetation near utility lines to help improve safety, reduce the risk of tree-related power outages, and maintain reliable electric service.
⠀
If you see markings on trees in your area, they may be part of SWEPCO’s process for identifying vegetation that needs attention near power lines.

⠀
For safety, residents should not attempt to trim or remove trees near power lines themselves. Questions or concerns regarding trees near SWEPCO power lines should be directed to SWEPCO. https://www.swepco.com/outages/problem/tree

Thank you for your patience and awareness as this work takes place in our community
