The City is Transitioning from Republic Services to Rumpke for Residental Waste Collection: Republic wants to do their part to ensure a smooth transition for all residents to the new service provider, Rumpke, whose service will begin on July 1. With this in mind, your last recycling and waste collection by Republic Services will be on your regular service day beginning on June 24th through June 30th. It will be paramount that you have your recycling and waste at the curb on the day of collection before they begin their routes as they will not be returning to collect recycling or waste that was not at the curb when their drivers arrive at the property. During this final collection they will also retrieve all Republic Services branded totes from the curb/roadway easement the same day as the final collection so even if you have no trash or recyling, pleae set your cans out for retrieval.

myNKY Nano Grant Program Coming to Taylor Mill

myNKY Nano Grant Program Coming to Taylor Mill

$250 grants are given to make residents’ creative place-making ideas happen

(August 1, 2017) TAYLOR MILL, KY – In support of the myNKY vision to promote vibrant communities, The Catalytic Fund and The Center for Great Neighborhoods (The Center) are bringing the myNKY Nano Grant program to the city of Taylor Mill. Up to three $250 grants will be awarded to people who live or work in Taylor Mill and have creative ideas to bring their community together.

The purpose of the Nano Grant program is to support creative place-making ideas created by local residents, students or workers that bring Northern Kentuckians together, build a sense of community, celebrate our differences and foster community pride.

In 2016, the Nano Grants program was offered in Dayton, Florence and Pendleton County, resulting in creative events like the Stories of Dayton and Ewe-nique Art Hop and interesting ideas such as the Fowl Weather sidewalk painting project, the Imagine This! student engagement project and a video contest to promote Dayton.

Jill Bailey, City Administrative Officer of Taylor Mill, is excited about the possibilities for creative projects in her community and says, “I think this will inspire our residents to come up with some really interesting ideas.”

The Catalytic Fund and The Center have committed to provide three $250 grants to Taylor Mill this year.

An informational session about the grants and the application process will be held on Thurs. August 17 at 6:00 pm at the City Building Community Room at 5225 Taylor Mill Rd., Taylor Mill, KY. Applications will be open from August 1-31. For more information, please visit www.myNKYVibrancyGrants.org .
