With the holiday season just a while away the Mayor and City Council is once again urging citizens to dispose of their waste in an environmentally friendly manner.
In a press release yesterday, the council said it has noted that the holiday cleaning has commenced and persons will have materials such as old furniture to get rid of.
It reminded citizens that dumping garbage in drains and alleys can result in numerous problems for the city and advised that persons desist from doing this.

The release said that the council has an efficient waste collection system in place which is to be used by citizens. Collection is done in commercial areas on a daily basis and in residential areas once per week.
The council has also advised that persons who have waste to remove in bulk can contact the solid waste department on 223-5123 or 223-5128.
