Good News for Composters!
The Composting Facility located at the Public Works Garage on Boston Street will remain open after July 1, 2009 on a fee based system. The center was originally planned for closure to the public on June 30, 2009 due to town wide budget cuts. In response to the many calls and suggestions from residents, a new system has been put in place. Residents can purchase a $5 Compost Access Ticket at the Selectmen's Office in Town Hall. The ticket will allow the disposal of up to 2 yards (a standard body pick-up truck) of approved yard waste per visit. Each visit will require a separate Access Ticket.
The Compost Center will be open and staffed on Saturdays from 9 AM to 1 PM only. No weekday drop-off is permitted unless prior arrangements have been made. Any and all additional information can be obtained by calling the Highway Dept. at 978-887-1542.

Voluntary Water Ban
The Topsfield Water Department has instituted a Mandatory Water Ban effective June 10, 2009.
