Please post your information for recycling on your website.
Hi Paul,
Thanks for the reminder! I had meant to post this earlier…hope this helps. If you have any questions let me know.
Jacqueline Blanchard
Town Manager
Great news about the recycling program!
CONGRATS Jacqueline. My hope is that the town will be cleaned-up. The garbage
left in fields consisting of disabled vehicles and other things is not very attractive in
such a beautiful area. The hills and water are so relaxing and inviting . It would be
much more appealing to the tourists and the local residence. I am a former resident
and visit yearly. Wishing you all a great year and much success. L Dolmage
Thank you for your kind words about Woody Point. Clean-up around town is an ongoing issue that the council is addressing on a daily basis. We are actively promoting a cleaner and tidier town to all our residents. It is a beautiful area and we want to enhance on that beauty.
Regards,
Jacqueline
