Town Clean-up Day
Do you have things on your property which could be in violation of Village Code? Is there clean-up that could be done to make your home more appealing? We want to attract new residents & businesses to the Village and encourage everyone to do their part.
The Village & Illini Township are sponsoring a clean-up day on Saturday, August 7 from 9:00 am – 2:00 pm.
This is limited to Illini Township residents only (which includes Warrensburg).
Items can be brought to the Illini Township location at 177 S. Washington by using the entrance to the fenced area off of Lincoln St and exiting onto Washington.
Items which are NOT accepted are: Tires – Liquid Paint – Batteries – Appliances – Yard Waste – Hazardous materials (gas, oil, solvents) – Electronics – Concrete – Large car parts.
In addition to the clean-up day, residents are encouraged to do other things, such as: pick up items you see in the road, ditch, that blow onto your property, that someone drops, etc. Everyone can help.
