Next week the Town of Fort Myers Beach will be conducting a five day “Island Beautification” project to clear small piles of construction debris and yard waste that are littering sidewalks and curbsides.
Property owners and residents are asked to use compostable trash bags supplied by the Town to collect yard waste and small construction debris near their properties (no chemical waste such as paint, pool or automotive liquids, etc.).
Place the bags curbside according to the following streets and pickup days:
Set bags out the night before this special pickup day. Each household will receive five bags. This special pickup is in addition to the usual regular pickup day.
To pick up trash bags, go to the BASE Office at the Town Hall Complex between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, at 2545 Estero Boulevard.
Bags will also be available from the BASE office on Saturday, Sept. 16, and Sunday, Sept. 17, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Look for signs that direct to the correct modular trailer on the Town Hall Complex.
Cool! Let’s all converge on the piles next to Diamond Head! It’d be great if the owner would clean up his mess.
