SNOW DECEMBER 17TH, 2020

The District is closely monitoring the storm for Wednesday night into Thursday morning. At this time, we will be having a delayed opening at the Transfer Station to allow for our crew to do a proper clean up. We ask everyone to be patient as we make sure the station is safe for operation.

We will continue to monitor the storm and especially the winds. As of now, the stations will operate at their normal times, except for the delay. Please be aware that the situation may change.

Thank you for your understanding.
