Tuesday customers will receive collection on Wednesday, Dec. 28 and Jan. 4.

All town offices will be closed on those days, but parks and ice rinks will be open, with extended hours at all rinks.

Town offices will close after a half day on the afternoons of Fridays, Dec. 23 and Dec. 30, in observance of Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve.

There will be normal town sanitation and S.O.R.T. recycling collections on those Fridays.
