Council to step up enforcement, signage after summer dumping near high school
Summary
Council members said illegal dumping near the high school and rec center has increased and planned to install signage and enforce rules, noting an early September bonfire will probably increase activity; staff will clean up and re-educate the public this fall.
Council members raised concerns about increased illegal dumping near the high school and recreation center ahead of the town bonfire planned for early September. Chair said that once signs go up and enforcement is emphasized "this fall, you're gonna see an increase in that" and that staff will re-educate the public and tighten permission controls for dumping.
Town Manager and council members discussed temporary signs (cardboard) for immediate use and more permanent signage later. The council said staff receive numerous calls about dumping and will pursue cleanup efforts and enforcement to deter furniture, appliances and other bulk items from accumulating near public sites.
