Building a Better and Greener Community

Quality of life has become an even more important factor in where people choose to live and businesses decide to locate.  So it is especially important that we make our communities more pleasant and attractive places to live. It is clear that people prefer to live in places that have those characteristics.

  • Properties are well maintained.
  • Trees and other vegetation bring nature close to home.
  • Parks and public spaces are attractive and inviting places to be.
  • Local recreational and cultural opportunities are available.
  • Environmental services like water, sewage disposal, recycling and waste are convenient, affordable and effective.
  • Other environmental concerns related to crime and blight are addressed.

Extraordinary Places Just Don't Happen

It is our goal to make this area a great place to live and work and encourage our younger folks to remain.  So it is important that we do everything we can to make our communities extraordinary. Extraordinary places don’t just happen; we have to work to make them happen.  That effort starts with many individuals all doing their small part to improve the community. Recycling, composting, and properly dealing with their waste is an important part of maintaining an attractive property and neighborhood.

And It’s Easy!

Once recycling becomes part of your routine, both at home and at work, it becomes second nature.  Conveniently located containers make it easy and our commingled system allows you to put all bottles and cans in the same recycling bin or receptacle. Recent changes have helped improve recycling diversion, but there’s still further improvement to be made.  Help us “Recycle More!”
