'Trash and Tire' cleanup to be April 16 in Fostoria

4/9/2005

FOSTORIA - City officials hope a free, unlimited disposal day at a local landfill will persuade the owners of nuisance properties to clean them up before they get cited.

During the "Trash and Tire Day" from 7:30 to 11:30 a.m. April 16, Fostoria residents can bring tires, appliances, furniture, scrap metal, and other material to the Sunny Farms Landifll on Seneca County Road 18, just south of town, said Tiffaney Shaver, the city's zoning inspector.

To participate in the free disposal, residents must transport items to the landfill themselves and show proof of city residency.

No batteries, paint cans, or solvents will be accepted, and businesses are not eligible to participate.
