Public Notice:  IS/MND Solid Waste Organics Diversion Project

(08/05/24) The City proposes to build and operate a Solid Waste Organics Diversion Facility to capture and beneficially reuse organic material found in garbage and wastewater biosolids.  Construction of the facility will allow the City’s organic waste to be converted to natural gas and used by local residents, rather than seeing it disposed of in landfills where it contributes to greenhouse gas emissions.  These environmental documents (the Initial Study and proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration) detail the analysis done to determine what impact the construction and operation of this project will have on the environment.  The public is encouraged to comment on the documents if they have any questions or concerns.

Weed Abatement - Goats Are Back

(04/29/24)  The goats are back to assist the City with its weed abatement.  As you drive or walk around the city, you may notice them grazing along storm channels and retention basins.  Using goats reduces the use of chemicals in the environment that can leave the banks bare and lead to erosion.  Goats are also nimble on uneven terrains and hillsides, and like to eat a lot of vegetation.  Stop to enjoy and take a picture but please do not touch the fences or try to feed them.  

*The goats have completed weed abatement along storm channels and retention basisn around the city.
