Trash/Recycle Tote Alert

Columbia City Residents, it has been noted that trash and recycle totes are being left at the street after collection has been made for the week.  Please be aware the City has an ordinance in place addressing the timeframe for your trash and recycle totes to be out at the street for collection.  All containers may be placed for collection no earlier than the evening preceding your scheduled collection day.  Such containers should then be removed from the collection site within 12 hours after the container has been emptied.  The fine for failing to follow the Ordinance is $50 for each day the violation remains.  Thank you!
