The environmental committee is not all about trees!  Here are a few photos of our bioswales here in town, which is a prime example of how this committee is helping control the storm water runoff.  Got questions?  Reach out to a committee member, they are a wealth of knowledge.

Spring cleaning has begun! Pictured is one of the bioswales getting cleaned out for the summer! These bioswales are a big help when it comes to storm water runoff. 

Which items can be recycled and which items can’t?

Emterra (formerly Richfield Management), has requested that RECYCLE BINS be placed on the opposite side of your driveway than your garbage.  This will avoid you being missed, as sometimes the driver can’t see the recycle bin next to your garbage.  For more information, visit www.Emterrausa.com and choose “Lexington” under the “Municipalities” tab.
