Storm issues remain

Although rumors indicate that the city is cleaning up storm debris left on the edge of streets, that is not true.

The City of Marion is not collecting storm debris piled on curbsides. Residents who have previously been assisted by the Baptist group cleaning up in the aftermath of the storm, did receive some relief thanks to the city.

However, as a general rule, city residents are responsible for the removal of their own storm debris. A city debris dump located on Mill Street is open and residents may use it free of charge.
