Steuben County Lawmaker Kelly Fitzpatrick says, the county public works department is going to be working with towns and villages across the county, to do a number of cleanup jobs.  “The Steuben County Public Works Department will designate the summertime and allow local municipalities to pick a two week time frame, so if a town/village wants to do some roadside cleanup, they can, in that time period, and then take the trash to the county landfill, free of charge,” Fitzpatrick said.  “Also, we’re working on setting up recycling days, so that there will be certain types of materials that the general public will be able to take to the landfill, which will also be free of charge as well.  Then we will also have a low cost tire day, to get rid of those tires that seem to be on the side of the road.”
