DPW CREWS WORKING HARD TO COLLECT STORM DEBRIS

DPW crews continue their hard work to safely clear debris resulting from Tropical Storm Isaias.  This collection process will take some time to complete given the broad range impact of the storm across Monroe Township.  Please deposit yard debris only at the curb through Friday, August 14.  Debris may be loose or in bio-degradable bags. No plastic bags accepted.  No household food products.  To help facilitate clean-up, the DPW yard will be open Friday from 10am – 2:45pm.  Yard hours also have been extended on Saturday, August 15 from 8am – 3pm for those who would like to drop off debris.
