[RP TownTalk] Public Works Saturday schedule??

[Alan K. Thompson]

I grabbed this text from last year's Town Crier article about the cleanup
day (updated with this year's date)

"Community Clean Up - Riverdale Park is having its annual community spring
cleanup on April 19, 2014. Residents are offered the opportunity to put
their yard waste/bulk trash items on the curb the evening of Friday, April
18th for pick up on Saturday, April 19, 2014.  This event replaces the
April Saturday Drop Off and the Public Works facility will not be open for
drop off of any bulk trash items.

The following items WILL NOT BE ELIGIBLE FOR PICKUP:  Remodeling lumber,
flooring material, plaster, plasterboard and interior tile  Fencing
material or poles  Air conditioners, refrigerators and freezers 
Lawnmowers or other gas powered tools  Automobile major components  Tires
 Dirt, stone, gravel and sod  Concrete blocks and bricks, cement 
Antifreeze and/or oil  Glass, windows, door panels, fish tanks  Paint 
Hazardous materials and/or chemicals"

In response to a question I received off-list, yard waste has to be
prepared in the usual way, namely: Yard waste includes branches, shrubs and
trees; bundle items and tie with rope or string (do not use wire).  Items
must be less than 5 feet long and weigh less than 75 pounds.

New regulations at the county landfill prohibit yard waste being in plastic
bags - if you are going to bag it, it must be in paper bags (which can be
purchased at nearby hardware and garden stores).

I'm on vacation right now so my responses are a little slow - sorry!
