 ADOPT-A-HIGHWAY PROGRAM
The Adopt A Highway Program gives local citizens an opportunity to
help keep roads and highways clean and attractive throughout the county.
Who can join?
- Any interested group of people
can volunteer to keep a section of roadway at least two miles
long clear of litter with regular cleanups.
- If a new group is forming, the
members should meet, choose a coordinator and select the roadways
they are interested in adopting.
-
Group coordinators are chosen by the group to be the contact person between the
county and the organization.
What is involved?
- The volunteer organizations promise
to clean the road at least four times a year for two years.
- The Solid Waste Management Division
provides safety training, bright orange vests and gloves for
volunteers to wear.
- It also provides safety signs
to be used during the cleanup activities.
- The county puts up a sign designating the roadway as adopted and naming the group that has promised to keep the roadside clean.
- The county provides Worker's Compensation insurance.
Littering is Unlawful
- To report illegal dumping in your neighborhood, call the dumping hotline at 527-5350. You will need to provide:
- Property address or directions to dump site.
