CITY AWARDED RECYCLING GRANT
The City has been awarded grant monies from St. Louis County for Recycling Carts. These are large green trash cans on wheels, marked with the City name, "Pasadena Hills" and the words "Recycle". These cans are to be used exclusively for recycling.
Preliminarily, it appears that one can will be available for each single family home in the community. The City has made arrangements for one can to be delivered to each qualifying address by Waste Management. If you are not interested in receiving a recycle cart, or have received one by mistake, please contact City Hall and we will arrange for it to be picked up. The City expects to have sufficient grant funds to provide all homes with these carts.

| Twenty municipalities in mid-North County have coordinated efforts developed a shared vision for revitalization of several transportation corridors and to create a guide for capital improvements within the area. The University of Missouri-St. Louis (engaged) has taken the lead on this project and has formed anon-profit corporation called “Mid-County Partners for Progress” which will deliver community and economic development support to businesses, schools, churches, municipalities and residents in the Normandy area. The goals of the project are to develop a plan that addresses the challenges of maintaining established suburban communities while creating a source of coordinated action among various municipalities, UMSL, and other community organizations. Streetscape improvement plans will be prepared for three main corridors (Natural Bridge Road, Martin Luther King Blvd/St. Charles Rock Road, and Page Avenue). These plans, which will contain elements transferable to similar communities in the region, will include site-specific signage, general design standards, and land use recommendations specific to the three transportation corridors. |
