Clean-up containers full
The City of Cameron has announced that the containers set out for community trash collection at five locations throughout the city are full.
Cameron City Manager Rhett Parker said that the containers at all five sites were filled within one weekend and collection is done for this year.
He said it is great that people have taken advantage of them, however the city is not going to continue for the rest of the month.
The City-wide Cleanup and collection was expected to last until June 18.
