RE: Street to Street Debris Removal to Cease October 24th, 2017.
The City began moving and hauling debris immediately after Hurricane IRMA. Good planning! First, I want to thank Vice-Mayor Sutton and Building Code Official Borysiewicz for taking the lead and operations of the clean-up. They and the contractors have been invaluable and produced an excellent job of cleaning up the Gem of the Florida Keys. The residents have done an outstanding job of returning to their homes and we are grateful! Thank you again.
We have made numerous passes throughout KCB, at a great expense. It is time to end street-to-street debris hauling. Most everyone had ample time to clean out their property over the past 35 days. Therefore, effective Tuesday, October 24 (Day42), at 5:00 p.m., the City of KCB will cease all debris pickup as a result of Hurricane IRMA.
All typical household trash, recycling and normal yard waste will continue to be picked up by our Marathon Garbage Service on their scheduled days.
No storm or construction debris will be picked up curbside. All property owners will be responsible for providing dumpsters or other means of removing any debris after the 24th of October. If you have any questions or concerns, please call me directly on my cell phone at 717.725.5508.
Please remember to register with FEMA if you haven’t done so already.
Thank you for your cooperation. –Chris.
