Be a Battery Hero! <br />If it lights up, makes noise, or moves without a plug, it has a battery! Batteries make our daily lives more <br />convenient. Once they are used, though, they must be disposed of properly. <br />If thrown in the trash or recycling, batteries may catch fire and pose a threat to people and property. <br />Some batteries also contain toxic metals, such as cadmium, lead, or mercury, which can pose a threat to <br />health and the environment. <br />​Be a battery hero! With so many different kinds of batteries, it can be confusing to know how to dispose of <br />batteries correctly. To make it easy for residents, ALL batteries are accepted at the Washington County <br />Environmental Center for free recycling, including rechargeable, button, and alkaline batteries. <br />The Lake Elmo Community Development <br />Department is happy to share our new Sign <br />Guide, created to help local businesses and <br />residents understand the sign regulations in <br />our community. This guide offers information <br />on the types of signs allowed, size <br />requirements, placement, and more. Whether <br />you are a business owner looking to advertise <br />or a resident curious about neighborhood <br />guidelines, this is a good resource for you. <br />Check out the Lake Elmo Sign Guide (linked <br />here: Sign Guide) to learn more.
