Residents with questions about policies can call for further information. The city of Lawrence's Web site, given at the end of this section, provides useful information about city services. A highlight is the Web page sponsored by the city's Waste Reduction and Recycling Department. Besides comprehensive information about the city's many recycling services, the site provides a comprehensive listing of local recycling service providers. It suggests ways that residents can be better recyclers.
Families can build a compost bin for yard waste or construct a worm bin for food wastes.
Children can access their own recycling Web site at the Kid's Page, which has several interactive activities and a fun eco-quiz. Dogs and cats four months of age or older must be vaccinated for rabies. Pets must wear a collar with a current tag indicating that they have been vaccinated. Lawrence has a leash law. The city's parks department operates several programs of interest to newcomers, including popular classes for individuals of all ages and income levels.
