Canaryville approves planning and modest funding for community yard cleanup day
Summary
Board approved staging a one-day community yard cleanup and tentatively allocated up to $1,000 to cover dumpster and diesel costs; final logistics and dates will be returned to the board for confirmation.
Stoney proposed a community yard cleanup to remove accumulated debris from the north and south sides of town. He said volunteers, family members and town staff could collect materials if property owners place items in the easement for pickup; the town would avoid entering private property.
Board members discussed logistics—whether to accept refrigerators, tires and hazardous materials—and estimated potential costs for roll-off dumpsters and diesel. Stoney and others suggested $1,000 would likely cover dumpster fees and fuel. The board approved proceeding with planning and tentatively allocated up to $1,000 for dumpsters and related expenses, with details to be returned for final approval before the event.
Board members said the event would be advertised (water bills, local news) and could be repeated if successful.
