1. Don’t throw trash out of car windows.

 2. Dispose of litter in the appropriate receptacles available around Town.

 3. Secure the lids on the refuse cans and recycled paper so the wind doesn’t scatter the contents. Remember that refuse containers are to be placed out no sooner than the night before pick up and brought back  in by day’s end.

4. Don’t leave garbage in plastic bags; animals can and will easily tear them and scatter the contents.

5. Instruct your gardener NOT to blow leaves onto the roads, the gutters or the streams.

7. As you jog or walk through your neighborhood, please pick up any litter and, in particular, the yellow plastic tape left over from Hurricane Sandy.

8. If you put up Tag Sale signs or flyers, remember to go back and take them down as soon as possible after the event.

9. Embrace our motto, Be Neat to the Street, and  keep your property clean to the curb.  If every resident were to do this regularly, our streets would be consistently clean!
