Snow Removal
UncategorizedProperty owners are encouraged to keep their walkways cleared this winter, especially when you are out of town.
When removing snow, never push or blow snow from the property, sidewalk, or driveway into the street. Property owners are responsible for keeping their public sidewalks clear of snow and ice within 24 hours of accumulation. The City inspects uncleared sidewalks on a complaint basis, and property owners are notified of violations and given 24 hours to clear their sidewalks. If sidewalks remain uncleared upon re-inspection, the City will clear the snow and ice at the owner’s expense. To report an uncleared sidewalk, please call 712-707-4885 and provide the address of the property.
Garbage Collection To Change
UncategorizedOrange City residents will automatically receive new 60 gallon garbage totes during the week of January 21st. The monthly garbage fee will increase from $12.15 to $13.45 and will be reflected in your January utility statement. However, at an additional cost, residents can opt for a 95 gallon tote and/or have multiples of each. To order a different size, please contact OC Sanitation office at 737-2645. Please note the following: The use of the new totes will begin on Friday, February 1st. The location and weekday of your garbage pickup will not change. Totes are to be left out by the street or alleyway with the front facing the street (or wheels by the curb) and the lids closed. If you wish, your garbage can be used as an additional recycling container by affixing a RECYCLABLE label that is free at the OC Sanitation and City Offices. For more information, please call 737-2645 or 707-4885.
