Newsletter Changes Coming Soon


We apologize for the recent gap in publishing the daily newsletter.  Staff shortages this summer have forced us to shift available resources.  Please look for enhancements to the newsletter in the near future 

Brush Pile Closure September 10-11


The brush and compost piles will be closed September 10-11 for grinding.  We apologize for the inconvenience, but this is a fairly dangerous operation and as such we need to keep all vehicles a safe distance away.


Brush Pile Hours

Please note that we have posted extended hours for the Ames Way brush pile to allow residents greater opportunity to deliver their brush.  The weekend hours will be Saturdays 8:00 am to noon.  The weekday hours are 7:30 am to 2:30 pm.  The brush pile is closed on legal holidays and during snow and ice operations.  In addition, the brush pile is open to residents only.  Landscapers are not allowed to use the pile.
