Clarendon Clean Up will be held Saturday

By Roger Estlack, Clarendon Enterprise

Residents of Clarendon are urged to brighten up the town this Saturday, April 17, during the spring citywide clean up.

City Administrator Sean Pate says residents will be able to dump their trash for free all day at the City Recycling Center. The center still cannot accept some things – such as shingles and tires – but tree limbs and general trash and debris can be taken until 8 p.m.

The clean up will start in the North Ward community, proceed downtown, and then go from there as needed. Pate said some city workers are donating their time to help with the project, and volunteers from the community are invited to meet at the City Barn at 8 a.m. to offer their assistance.

Pate also said that if any senior citizens or disabled residents are unable to haul off debris, they can obtain assistance by calling City Hall ahead of time at 874-3438.
