DOG LICENSE REMINDER: Make sure your pets are licensed with a Sugar City tag. Dog tags are available at city hall. The cost is $15 per pet for their lifetime.

HOLIDAY GARBAGE PICK-UP: Garbage pickup will be on a normal schedule for New Years and Civil Rights holidays. PSI Environmental will not pick up garbage sitting outside of the provided container. If you need more than one can for your garbage service, please call city hall to obtain a second can. Please tie garbage bags tightly before placing garbage bags in containers.
