City of Safford hosts Community Pride Days from Oct. 15-27

Published on Wednesday, October 3, 2007 4:29 PM MST

The city of Safford is hosting Community Pride Days from Oct. 15-27, 2007, during which time landfill charges will be waived for Graham County residents hauling trash from their households.

Residents must have identification to document their place of residency within Graham County. Identification may include a photo ID driverÕs license or other photo ID showing place of residency or address.

The city of Safford is requesting that the towns of Thatcher and Pima participate in Community Pride Days during the week of Oct. 15-20 to reduce the congestion problems of past years.

Fees will not be waived for commercial haulers or commercial business (e.g., landscape businesses, RV parks); only residential household trash may be dumped without charge.

Residents must tarp or cover their loads. Because of the amount of litter accumulated on the landfill entry roads as a result of this program, there will be a $5 charge for loads not covered or tied down.

All are urged to help clean up our communities. Questions may be directed to Jay Howe, city of Safford utilities director, at 348-3143.
