Youngsville Borough
Odd/Even Parking officially ends on Monday, April 1.
News from the Public Works Department: work to improve the Infrastructure on Seventh Street has begun. Unfortunately, it is expected that this street will be torn up for the better part of the summer as this work continues. Youngsville Borough appreciates your patience during this process.
April recycling days are Wednesday, April 10, and Wednesday, April 24; recycling was not picked up on Wednesday, March 27, as the garbage truck was temporarily out of service. Note the garbage bag weight limit is no more than 40 pounds per bag and all garbage must be bagged.
As a courtesy, yard waste (only brush, small branches, grass clippings, leaves) can be taken to the sewer plant for disposal. No garbage or branches over three inches in diameter. The gate will continue to be left open unless these rules are abused. If these rules are not followed, the gate will close daily at 3 p.m. As the weather allows us to start mowing our yards, please keep in mind that it is against the law to blow grass clippings and yard waste into the streets.
Youngsville Borough office and services will be closed on Friday, April 19, in observance of the Good Friday holiday.
