Good morning, Pickaway County. Circleville is experiencing a tale of two cities this weekend – while police officers respond to an overwhelming 87 calls in just three days across town, tackling everything from vehicle thefts to domestic disputes, another countdown of a more positive nature is quietly unfolding. The community needs just 30 more households to sign up for curbside recycling before May 1st to make the program a reality, with 420 already committed to this environmental milestone that could transform how the city handles waste.
Meanwhile, Easter spirit is hopping into town as Circleville High School students team up with the Sheriff's Office for Sunday's community egg hunt. From 2-4 p.m., children of all ages will gather at the City Schools campus for an afternoon of springtime celebration – a welcome bright spot amid the busy weekend for local law enforcement who continue addressing the diverse range of community safety concerns.

The Ohio city needs just 30 more residents to sign up for Rumpke's program before the May 1st deadline to reach their required 450 participants.

If successful, the service will begin rolling out in late June, marking a significant step forward for sustainable waste management in the community. Residents interested in participating still have time to help their city reach this important milestone.
