The Leaf Vacuum Truck is not able to pick up grass clippings (wet or dry due the way it is designed) or wet leaves so we ask that you bag them, and then we will pick them up. Do not pile grass clippings or wet leaves with other lawn debris that is left for pickup as they will not be picked up. Please do not include any trash with your bagged grass clippings or wet leaves.

September 30, 2021 in News Constitution Awareness Day Per Mayor David Keener A PROCLAMATION CONSTITUTION WEEK September 17-23, 2021 WHEREAS: September 17, 2021 marks the 234th anniversary of the 1787 Constitutional Convention where the oldest active written constitution in the world was drafted by the United States, thus outlining the fundamental principles by which our nation is governed; and WHEREAS: Our Constitution established six basic governing principles for our society, including popular sovereignty, the rule of law, federalism, judicial review, individual rights and separation of powers with a system of checks and balances; and WHEREAS: Popular sovereignty allowed our government to be created for and by the people, while the rule of law required that government and citizens be guided by a set of laws, rather than by any individual or single group. Federalism provided for the sharing of power between our national government and individual state governments; and WHEREAS: The Constitution ensures the distribution of functions and responsibilities among three separate branches with a system of checks and balances to calibrate those powers, guaranteeing individual rights and liberties against government encroachment; and WHEREAS: The State of Georgia became the fourth state in the Union to ratify the Constitution, signed by Georgia delegates Abraham Baldwin and William Few, on January 2, 1788. Constitution Week affords the opportunity for all citizens to learn about Georgia’s role during our nation’s founding. NOW THEREFORE: I, David L. Keener, Mayor of the City of Social Circle do hereby proclaim September 17-23, 2021, as CONSTITUTION WEEK in Social Circle and September 17, 2021 as Constitution Awareness Day.
