Lynn Township EAC schedules April 26 Clean Up Day alongside Lynnport Fire Company recycling event
Summary
The Lynn Township Environmental Advisory Council set a township Clean Up Day for April 26, 2025, 9 a.m.–12 p.m., coordinated with a Lynnport Fire Company recycling event. Members assigned logistics, outreach, and a funding request to the Board of Supervisors.
The Lynn Township Environmental Advisory Council scheduled a township Clean Up Day for Saturday, April 26, 2025, from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the Lynn Township building, to run alongside a Lynnport Fire Company recycling event.
The event was announced during new business; Tricia Ferraro, a member of the EAC, said PennDOT cleanup supplies have been arranged for pickup. The council recorded several assigned tasks to prepare for the day, including outreach, securing a dumpster and trash transport, and media promotion.
Why it matters: the event is framed as a neighborhood-level cleanup and recycling opportunity intended to remove roadside trash and increase resident engagement with township environmental efforts. Organizers said the drive is not a fundraiser and will rely on partner organizations for logistics.
Details and assignments: the council asked Kathryn Townsend to set up social media accounts (Nextdoor and Facebook) and to pitch the event to the NW Press; Rob Sayre will contact trash organizations to obtain a dumpster; Tricia Ferraro was assigned to create an organizational plan for April 26, 2026; and the Road Master was asked to transport trash from the roadside cleanup (timing and final approval TBD). The minutes record a tentative request to the Board of Supervisors for roadside trash-disposal funding estimated at approximately $100–$300.
Logistics and promotion: promotion channels listed include the Lynnport Fire Company and posting flyers. The EAC also flagged researching other recycling-company pricing ahead of a separate October 18, 2025 recycling drive.
Next steps: the council will finalize permits and logistics, submit a funding request to the Board of Supervisors, and continue outreach through assigned members. The minutes show the council approved meeting minutes and adjourned; the cleanup assignments remain active action items.
