Water Valve Replacement

Postponed!

The Town plans to replace one of its 5 large pressure reducing valves.

The contractor has had to postpone this project. We will update those who will be impacted, when the work is rescheduled.

As a reminder, any time there is maintenance work on any water system pipes or pressure, we recommend running your cold water if you have any discoloration, until the water runs clear.

Recycling Reminders!

Contamination to single stream recycling is a huge problem: plastic bags cause machinery to jam; food scraps and liquids splatter workers; and non-recyclable materials reduce the value of the sorted materials driving the cost up for everyone.

Take an extra moment and rinse bottles/cans/food products. Please NO plastic bags ever at the recycle bins.

In addition, curbside compost collection is now offered in Lyons. Curious about composting? Check out this video to see what is compostable!

The Town and volunteers are currently discussing the feasibility of being able to host a safe, spring clean up event later this year, amidst COVID regulations.

Please review the dirty dozen and keep them out of the recycling bins!
