Alleys, backyards, attics, basements – any spare storage space – is a blessing when handling that extra stuff that tends to accumulate. Sometimes those items overflow or devolve into what your family and neighbors have the gaul to call “junk”. Residents will have the opportunity to throw away all the unwanted extra non-Dumpster/landfill acceptable items they have free of charge during Alliance Clean-up Day Saturday, June 29.
City staff and volunteers will man three drop-off sites from 7 a.m. to 1:30 p.
m. – Bower-Shankland Legion Field:101 Mississippi Avenue; Knight Park: Sixth Street ad Dakota Avenue; and Lakefield Subdivision (former Community Garden site): 2701 Big Horn Drive. Screeners will assist in sorting items into two categories bound for the landfill: Yard Waste and Construction and Demolition debris as well as recyclables to be processed by Keep Alliance Beautiful.
Screeners will be prepped with a short training session. The City will continue to recruit volunteers in the coming weeks. “We invite volunteer groups of all sizes and backgrounds to participate in this meaningful initiative.
. . .
By volunteering your time and energy, you’ll not only contribute to a cleaner environment but also foster a sense of pride and unity within our community,” a City news release states. For information or sign up a group contact Kaytlin Norris at [email protected] or call 308-762-5400.
Organizer Ross Grant, City Public Works director, has led other commun.
