  3. Related to the Conservation Plan, there will be several meetings providing the opportunity for public review/comments on the draft plan. All meetings start at 7 PM. More details along with maps to these locations can be found on the calendar located on our Events page (linked above). The locations and dates are as follows:

  4. In addition, for a limited time only, there will be several locations in Butler County where people can drop off phone books for recycling.  Phone books are apparently difficult to recycle because of the short fibers so a lot of recycling places do not accept them.  I believe the recycle bins will be available until sometime in Mid February.  Locations are:Slippery Rock Community Park – office parking lot off N. Main St.
    East Butler Vol. Fire Dept. – rear parking lot
    Friedman’s Freshmarket – Point Plaza Shopping Center parking lot
    Friedman’s Freshmarket – Greater Butler Mart parking lot
    Sam’s Club – Moraine Point Plaza parking lot near entrance drive
  5. Butler County has a website about recycling in Butler County.  It is www.recyclebutler.us
