Thursday, March 27 is the annual HOA meeting in the board room of the DISD administration building, 510 Mercer Street. The meeting will be held at 6:30pm and will include election of a Board of Directors for the coming year.
Jack Breese spoke briefly about recycling in the neighborhood. He reminded us that Hays County Recycling is just 2 miles from us and makes it easy to recylce.
To find them, go south on 12, and then east on 150. If you need further information, google Hays County Recycle and all the information re: their hours and what is accepted is there.
I use Green Goddess Recycle. She charges $15.00 per month with the final bill of $16.24 per month. She picks up on Thursday am. I put out cardboard (flattened), glass, cans, and paper. What a difference this has made in my trash can content and its so easy. It does make you think twice about all the packaging we get. A few things that are not recyclable are the plastic bottle TOPS and cereal boxes (they are already recycled).
Call Kim Lorance at 858-7861 or email her at kimlorance@earthlink.net. She is terrific!
