Thursday: Autumnfest Button, Costumes, Zoning, Calendar, Things

Autumnfest Button - Believe it or not, the last few lucky Autumnfest Button winners - who each could have claimed an easy $100 - passed up their chance to collect. That means a new winner has a shot, if the owner of button #753 still has it and can call in to WNRI at 401-769 - 6925 before Tuesday. A re-drawing for unclaimed button prizes will be held after that.  

Trash - Regular trash and recycling pickup is back on schedule following Hurricane Sandy. Yard waste pickup is still backed up - Monday and Tuesday's pickup will happen today. Wednesday and Thursday's pickup will happen Friday, and Friday's yard waste pickup will happen on Saturday. Got a question about all that? Call the DPW Solid Waste Division at (401) 767-8880.

Zoning - The Woonsocket Zoning Board will meet Nov. 13 at City Hall, 7 p.m. On their agenda, seven variance requests. Check out the link to see who may be planning what in your neighborhood. 

Calendar - If you've got an event you want to share with the many readers of the Woonsocket Patch, you can be your own best advocate - post it yourself to the Woonsocket Patch calendar. Fill in the blanks with your event's information, and you're good to go.
