Animal
Control
Animal Control is governed largely by the City's
Animal Control Ordinance which prohibits animals from running at-large.
The City also has a "Dangerous Dog" ordinance which prohibits a dog
from attacking another animal or person. Any violations of these
ordinances may constitute a fine payable by the owner. Should you require
Animal Control Services during business hours, contact City Hall at
494-3671. After hours, contact the Police Dispatch at 335-6000.
For the removal of deceased
animals, please contact Waste Management at 368-5000.

Solid Waste Services
Waste Management
handles all solid waste pickup for common household
waste in the municipality's residential districts. Waste pickup is scheduled for Wednesdays and
Saturdays. Place all items at the edge of the street by 8 a.m. the day of
pickup.
Waste pickup in the business district is made
directly between the business and the provider of his/her choice.
Recycling of plastics, bottles, and newspaper is scheduled
for Wednesdays. Magazines, cardboard, and any type of paper can be recycled by placing them in the dumpster
located at the front of City Hall.
The City also provides brush pickup on the last
Saturday of the month. This pickup is for residential brush only. Commercial operations that cut trees are responsible for removing and disposing
of brush on their own. Waste Management requests that any brush placed out
for removal be located in the Right-of-Way; maximum limb length is six
feet. Each residence is limited to the 29 cubic yards of brush each month.
For questions regarding service, call Waste
Management at 368-5000.
