NOTICE TO RESIDENTS Illegal Dumping in Town Rights-of-Way
Dear Town of Center Residents, The Town of Center has recently received reports of individuals improperly disposing of cat litter, animal waste, and other debris within public rights-of-way. This includes areas such as streets, alleys, sidewalks, drainage ditches, and other Town-owned property. Dumping any type of waste on public property is prohibited. In addition to creating an unsightly appearance, improperly discarded animal waste can pose health risks, attract pests, create unpleasant odors, and interfere with the proper function of drainage systems. Please be advised that illegal dumping is a violation of the Town of Center’s ordinances and may result in enforcement action. Violators may be subject to a fine of up to $300, imprisonment, or both, as provided by the applicable Town ordinances and Municipal Court. We ask all residents to dispose of household waste, including used cat litter and animal waste, through their regular trash collection service or another approved disposal method. Keeping our community clean is a shared responsibility, and your cooperation is greatly appreciated. If you observe anyone illegally dumping waste or debris on Town property, please report it to the Town of Center as soon as possible. If it can be done safely, providing the date, time, location, a description of the individual or vehicle, photographs, or a license plate number can assist the Town in investigating the incident. Please do not confront individuals involved in illegal dumping. To report illegal dumping or to ask questions, please contact: Town of Center Phone: (719) 754-3498 Address: 294 Worth Street, Center, CO 81125 Together, we can help keep our streets, neighborhoods, and public spaces clean, safe, and welcoming for everyone.
