Help Keep Our City Green

You can play your part in keeping our city green. Keep these tips in mind all year long:

• Flush only toilet paper down the toilet. Everything else, including products marked "flushable," should be thrown out.
• Wipe off oil, grease, and fat from pots and pans and throw it in the trash, not down the drain.
• Refrain pouring or dumping anything down stormwater drains, they're only meant to dispose of rainwater.
