YARD WASTE CLIPPINGS

The City of Gibraltar would like to ask residents to please be mindful when cutting grass and other shrubbery this season. Grass and plant clippings that are blown into the street can be damaging to the municipal stormwater system. Grass and other debris can get lodged in our pumps and clog up our catch basins. Additionally, the debris can create slick and dangerous riding conditions.  Please bag and dispose of lawn remains in a responsible manner.
