Max will be flushing hydrants August 12th, 13th and 14th. This will occur between the hours of 12:00 midnight, and 5:00 a.m.  If you experience rusty water during this time, you may wish to let your faucet run for a few minutes. This should clear it up quickly.

This is just a quick reminder, this Saturday we will be holding our Spring Clean-up Day, and we will also begin our Recycling Day.  Both will be held at the park. For more information, you may refer to: Mulberry Spring Clean-up  and Town of Mulberry Recycling Program. Each page will have more information about each event.

 

Both events are on Saturday April 18th, 2009. 

Spring Clean-up is from 8:00 a.m. until 12:00 Noon

The Recycling Program will be from 9:00 a.m. until 12:00 Noon. 

---  Items to plan on recycling: Glass (Clear and Colored), Plastic, Paper/Cardboard, Aluminum and Steel. 

      We will also collect newspapers, and will give them to the Boy Scouts. 

 

We appreciate your effort to help the environment and keep recycled goods our of the landfills. By recycling these items, you are doing your part to help keep our planet safe for the many generations that will come after us. GO GREEN! START TODAY!

 

 

Max will begin flushing hydrants Monday April 13th, 2009, and expect to be finished by Friday April 17th, 2009 between the hours of 12:00 midnight, and 5:00 a.m.  If you experience rusty water during this time, you may wish to let your faucet run for a few minutes. This should clear it up quickly.

 

The week following our Spring Clean-up, (the week of 4/19/09-4/24/09)

We will have the Leaf Vac Machine out and running, collecting the leaves and sticks that you may have leftover from the winter season. Please have your leaves raked to the side of the road, as our hose only reaches a few feet. You should place your leaves where your yard meets the road;  sticks can be piled separately next to the road, and they will be picked up for you.

This service is provided by the Town of Mulberry, free of charge to you.

This will occur for the entire week following Spring Clean-up, and will end on Friday, 4/24/09.  

Our regular Leaf Pick-up schedule will be announced and posted closer to the Fall season.

 

Have a look at Max's recommendations in the Water Department section of the Town's website.

There are 111 tips on how to conserve water, and ultimately lower your bill. They are things we often overlook in our everyday lives, and I think many of you will find them to be very interesting.

Some of you may have noticed on February the 10th, and 11th that you had a bit of rusty water.

This would be due to the Water Superintendent flushing the fire hydrants. While this presents questions as to why the water is rusty, this is normal, and it is necessary maintenance that has to be done. You may wish to let your water trickle for a short time to clear up your lines prior to doing a load of laundry. This only lasts for a short period of time, and it will return back to normal.
