SINGLE STREAM RECYCLING

As of October 1, 2009 all RECYCLING ITEMS can be placed in the same container. No longer will you have to separate paper, from plastic bottles, metal and glass—just mix all your recyclables together. It will be easy to recycle with the upcoming new no-sort system called “single stream recycling.”

For any questions or free recycling bins, call the Public Works Department at 954-946-7386.

DRAINAGE SYSTEM MAINTENANCE

The City has a system of canals and storm drains for stormwater management purposes. They are maintained on a regular basis by the Public Works Department. These drains are of vital importance since the water flowing through them not only drains our city, but also the area to the west of us.

State and city law prohibit dumping into these waterways.

Violations should be reported to any of the following departments:

Public Works - 954-946-7386
Code Enforcement - 954-784-3409
Office of the City Clerk - 954-943-6500.
