The City of Marietta this Labor Day is shutting down all administrative offices on Monday, September 2. The closure encompasses a broad range of services. Labor Day, a holiday designed to honor the American labor movement, will also see alternate arrangements for the city's sanitation services, including garbage, brush/yard waste, and recycling. For Marietta dwellers, this means adapting their waste disposal schedules for the week.
Marietta Power and Water will also join in the observance of the holiday. With closed doors at the administrative offices, the city has put out a reminder to double-check your holiday collection schedule. They're nudging residents towards the Marietta Trash Talk app or the city website to keep track of the shifts in pickup times.
Even on holidays, emergencies continue. The city has made it clear: for life-threatening situations, 9-1-1 should be dialed. For non-emergencies, the Marietta Police Department is on stand-by at 770-794-5300. Furthermore, for issues with Marietta Power or Water, call 770-794-5160. For animal control emergencies, 9-1-1 is again the number to call.
Labor Day is a time to honor the hard work that keeps our city running, from the administrative staff to sanitation workers. In the meantime, the city encourages citizens to keep these changes and contacts to ensure a smooth holiday.
