NKADD and KY Transportation Cabinet Seeks Input: Every day we hear about terrible accidents on our local roads. The NKADD is partnering with the KY Transportation Cabinet’s Technology Transfer Program to develop a comprehensive safety action plan for Boone, Campbell, Carroll, Gallatin, Grant, Kenton, Owen, and Pendleton Counties. The safety action plan aims to reduce and eliminate serious injury and fatal crashes affecting all roadway users. We need your help in identifying safety concerns in our region.  Please take a few moments to complete the NKY Safety Action Plan survey. This survey will be combined with crash analysis and local agency review of roadways to identify potential safety issues on county roadways.  Once identified the NKADD and local counties will work to identify counter measures to improve safety.  The safety action plan will be used to direct local forces and funds and pursue additional funding from KYTC and USDOT.  Here is the survey link."

Republic Waste Services

Garbage pickup is a service that we all need and expect on a consistent basis.  However, from time to time, issues arise that require the waste hauler to come later than expected, or sometimes, not at all.  When that happens, there is always a plan in place to get the trash picked up as soon as possible.  Our contract with Republic requires them to pickup any missed trash within 24 hours. 

If you ever have an issue with Republic or if you require a special service not covered by our city contract, you are encouraged to use their website:  www.RepublicServices.com.   From this site you can sign up for “Service Alerts” that will notify you if there is any anticipated delay in your service. 

You can also arrange for a special pickup for a large item such as an old couch or mattress.  You can also reach them at their customer service number of 800-543-1339 M-F 7:30-5:00pm.
