Spring is in the AIR

While the temperatures have been nice this past weekend.  Many residents of Taylor were seen taking advantage of  the nice weather and cleaning up or raking up their yards.  The Department of Public Works has again started picking up yard waste this past Monday, March 19,2012. With that being said we wanted to make sure our residents are aware that Taylor Borough can no longer accept grass and leaves in any type of plastic bag (biodegradable or not), when placing this out at the curb.  This is a requirement by the Department of Environmental Protection. Grass and leaves must be placed in separate open containers, weighing no more than 35 pounds. Brush and tree limbs cannot be mixed with grass and leaves. They can be bundled together or placed in separate open containers

 While making our streets clean and safe our Department of Public Works has been having problems with homeowners who have portable basketball hoops that hang out beyond the curb lines.  The Department has had a few incidents over the years when the plow trucks catch on the rim or the net of the basketball hoops.  Taylor Borough Council is asking all residents to move the basketball hoops away from the roadway so this can be avoided and make it safer for our Department of Public work employees in removing the snow
