We have Coffee on! REMINDER The Town of Faro has recently made changes to our speed signage around Faro. Please remember to slow down and observe all posted limits. Thank you! Town of faro GOT ANY OLD FURNITURE ITEMS YOU CAN’T SELL OR DON’T WANT ?? Frequently people in Faro find themselves in this predicament. Their answer is to take it to our garbage dump, pitch it over the bank and leave it to rot and become a victim of squirrels, ravens or any marauding predator who looks for all the cookie crumbs you left behind in the couch over the past years. At Faro we are supposed to re-use, recycle or reclaim as much as we possibly can and not fill up our waste dump. Pitching your old used furniture at the dump DOES NOT help us in this respect. So the Town of Faro has decided to help you move that old unwanted couch, coffee table, computer, TV, love seat, kitchen table and chairs or bicycles to a new owner. An 8’ x 20’ C-can (container) has now been placed at the dump in which to deposit this type of furniture item. The steel construction will keep the rain and snow off the furniture items and the animals out (if you close the doors securely when finished). Instructions are on the container how to open (and close) the doors securely. Please follow these instructions and it will make the usage so much easier for the next person. The items in the container are FREE to anybody who shows up and needs them. The container has access doors at each end if the item you want happens to be at the other end. NOTE: there is no power in this container so the storage area is unlit. You will have to use the headlights of your vehicle if you are there after dark. Please do not deposit garbage anywhere near the container and help us keep the area clean. Everybody will benefit then. A SMALL CHANGE IS COMING Most people in Faro choose to place their household garbage in our designated bear proof steel bins located in convenient places round the town. However if you choose to make a trip to our solid waste site, for whatever reason, we would ask that you adhere to our new policy. It would appear that people who make a trip to our solid waste site throw their garbage over the bank in a designated dumping area. That practice appears to be causing some problems at the site. No sooner than people have left when the ravens, gulls, eagles and an odd bear go into “attack mode”. They see very easy pickings and all the while the plastic bags that are ripped open get spread all over, blown around by the wind. EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY, if you chose to take household garbage to the solid waste site that will attract animals; we would like you to put it in the two steel garbage containers that are at the bottom of the site. We dump out these containers every Monday and Thursday providing you with ample room to throw out any household waste. NOTE: grass cuttings, wood, steel, rug scraps etc do not apply to this new procedure. ONLY the household waste that would be an attractant to wildlife is what we are trying to exercise more control over. With your cooperation we feel that we can get better control of the windblown and bird/animal scattered debris at our solid waste site. Thanking you in advance for your cooperation. Any questions please call me at 994-2758. Jim McLachlan, Manager of Operations
