Trash & Recycling

No glass containers are allowed, and food-contaminated waste should be disposed of in trash cans.
“Our city’s Easter camping tradition is like none other, and we’re excited to welcome families, friends and neighbors to select parks over the holiday weekend,” Parks and Recreation Director Homer Garcia III said in a news release. “We encourage visitors to do their part to ensure our parks remain clean by disposing of litter and recyclables properly. Whatever you pack into the park, please remember to pack it out.”
