Ash pickup ceases in township

By Rebecca Zemencik, Managing Editor • rebecca-z@citizenstandard.com

HEGINS – Hegins Township residents will have to dispose of their own ashes.
Last Wednesday, the Hegins Township Supervisors voted to eliminate ash pick-up. The supervisors have been discussing whether or not to stop the pickup for the past two months.
Supervisor Bruce Klouser was the driving force to eliminate the pick up. He felt it was unsafe for the township road crew to be picking them up. He also said he contacted several other local municipalities and boroughs and was told they don’t provide the service to their residents either.
