MONROE - The City of Monroe Street and Sanitation Department, with the cooperation of Boy Scout Troops 115, 101, and 180, will have a yard waste drop-off day from 7 a.m. to noon on Saturday, Aug. 16.
Monroe residents who pay a quarterly refuse and recycling fee may bring their bagged and bundled yard waste to the Street Department at 1064 Fifth Ave. one Saturday per month free of charge.
