PUBLIC NOTICE - March 23, 2020
and GRAPHS with COVID-19 statistics.
CAUTION: Baby wipes, paper towels, and even 'flushable' wipes may clog your sewer line and cause overflows.
Due to increased disinfection and sanitizing in our homes to protect ourselves and families, we ask that residents be mindful of the paper being flushed down the toilet. Our sewage collection system depends on gravity and enough water flow to move human waste and biodegradable toilet paper. The system was not designed for napkins, paper towels, flushable wipes and especially nylon wipes. These items can very easily clog the collection system and cause sewer backups in homes and on the ground. The City of Walker would like to thank you for your cooperation and understanding during this trying time as we strive to serve our community and ensure that we can provide basic utilities to our residents.

Waste Management has removed the recycle bin located on Ball Park Road. The City has decided to discontinue recycling services due to continuous improper usage and contamination of recycling materials.
