A mural has been added on the 600 block of Idlewood, as part of the 2015 Richmond Mural Project. However, this piece, signed by “Jerkface”, looks like it has not been completed yet.

Trash/Recycling Pickup Tomorrow

This Wednesday is a red Wednesday, which means trash and recycling pickup. Please make sure you pick up containers after pickup tomorrow night. They do not belong on the sidewalk after tomorrow night.

From news reports, it sounds like Oregon Hill will be receiving new, larger recycling bins on August 10. For more information, contact the Central Virginia Waste Management Authority (CVWMA) as they are responsible for the roll out of the new recycling program.
