Refresh Concordia/Spring Cleanup

Spring is here, and it is time to “Refresh Concordia!”  The City Commission urges residents to prepare their yards and front porches for enjoyment this spring by pruning trees and bushes and removing items no longer used from their properties. Concordia residents are encouraged to tidy up their yards the week of April 8th – 14th, revealing their pride in our beautiful community.

“We are excited to offer this opportunity again to help clean up Concordia, but would ask our citizens to be good stewards of this program by having all materials placed at the curb and separated by April 15,” Mayor Chuck Lambertz implored. “Also, please remember, if the work is something you can do on your own, please do it so that we are able to maximize the benefit of this program and make the most efficient use of our resources.”

City crews will begin collecting items from the curb on Monday, April 15th. Items must be placed at the curb before 7:00AM to guarantee pickup. Tree limbs less than 4 inches in diameter (not trees), passenger car and truck tires, limited appliances and furniture will be collected. Household trash and construction debris will not be collected.  Refrigerators, freezers, and air conditioning units will not be collected.   Residents are responsible to ensure items are and remain sorted at the curb.

Items remaining at the curb after April 19th will be treated as a nuisance, and a cleanup fee of $300 will be charged.
