Jennifer Christensen - Clinton City Council

Did you get this email today, too? If not, here's an update about secondary water shut off. Thanks, Clinton City for keeping us posted!

Due to this year's below-normal snowpack/runoff, plus a hot, dry summer, the Davis and Weber Counties Canal Company will be shutting down its secondary water systems on September 15, 2026. This is similar to many entities in the region.

While we continue to pray for rain and good snowpack, future weather conditions are, of course, unknown. Knowing that 2026 conditions may repeat in 2027, the Canal Company has chosen the September 15 shut off date to preserve some water for next year's use.

Some water will remain in the canal to meet planned turnout needs until October 1, 2026 or when their allotment is used.

More secondary water information can be found at: https://www.davisweber.org/

Clinton City's ordinance on term limits is a hot topic right now. I'd love to have you weigh in before the City Council's meeting on July 28. Please complete this short poll to share your opinion. Thanks!

The Clinton City Council is expected to vote on Tuesday, July 28, 2026 about whether to repeal the term limits ordinance that was passed in May 2025. I would love to know what YOU think!

Thank you, Madame Mayor, for this great update on Clinton's up-and-coming curbside recycling program. I fully support this effort, and I'm grateful that I'll no longer have to hunt down cardboard bins and send plastic bottles to work with my husband! Clinton Mayor Marie Dougherty, do we know yet if we'll have a local recycling bin for glass?

https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1C5QayPpr3/

♻️ Ready for recycling? Clinton is launching a citywide program. A new blue recycling can will arrive at every household starting the first week of August.

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗺𝘂𝗰𝗵 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝘀𝘁?
$6 a month per can. The City won’t start charging until Oct. 1, so try it for free.

𝗖𝗮𝗻 𝗜 𝗼𝗽𝘁 𝗼𝘂𝘁?
Yes, but only for a certain time period. Follow the instructions on your can after you get the can. Someone will pick it up for free. You should opt out by Sept. 25, because recycling becomes mandatory in October for anyone who hasn't opted out.

𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗰𝗮𝗻’𝘁 𝗜 𝗼𝗽𝘁 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗯𝗲𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗲𝘀?
Clinton will get a $100,000 grant from the nationwide Recycling Partnership if we deliver to every household. They want to incentivize recycling.

It’s actually more cost-effective for us. The City isn't the one delivering the cans. The can vendor will deliver them. The City will, however, pick up cans from those who opt out, but that's a much lesser cost in manpower for us compared to the grant money we will get from the universal delivery. Most cities in Davis County that allowed an opt-out had 80% of households choose to remain in the program.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝗳 𝗜 𝗮𝗹𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗮 𝗽𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘆𝗰𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲?
After your new can arrives, you will need to cancel your private service. Our understanding is the private companies will no longer serve Clinton. But that's between you and them.

𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝗖𝗹𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼𝗻 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺?
To preserve the life of the landfill. When it’s full, we will have to pay to transfer all our waste to our other landfill 100 miles away. Recycling diverts waste away from the landfill, which reduces future costs for everyone.

𝗪𝗵𝗼 𝗵𝗮𝘂𝗹𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘆𝗰𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴?
The same company that picks up your black garbage can will do your blue can. Both cans are on the same day you normally have, but blue cans are only every other week.

𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗱𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘆𝗰𝗹𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗴𝗼?
To Layton, to the Materials Recovery Facility, where the recyclables are sorted, bundled, and sold domestically. Paper goes to Washington State, metals go to a recycling center in Utah, plastics go to Arizona and Nevada.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗜 𝗽𝘂𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝗺𝘆 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘆𝗰𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝗮𝗻?
More than you think: All kinds of plastics (except PVC), plastic wrap, grocery sacks, paper, cardboard, styrofoam, aluminum cans, and steel cans.

Leave everything loose in the can so it can be sorted; don't bag recyclables the way you do garbage. Containers should be empty. Recyclables should be generally clean but don't have to be perfect. For example, an empty jar of peanut butter can still have some smears of peanut butter inside.

No glass. No garbage. No clothing, cords, or electronics.
