It is of the utmost importance that everyone in Funkstown fill out the Census papers for 2020. The last census the Town of Funkstown had the worst reporting rate in the state.

Due to the New Years Holiday the trash pick up for Funkstown will be Friday the 3rd for this week.

Trash pick up will be delayed for one day due to the snow event this week.

This is a season when some of our neighbors may be in need of one of the most basic necessity, food. Scouts will come to your house this coming Saturday the 16th to pick up whatever food you can set out by 8:00 AM. The items that they are looking for are Canned Vegetables, Canned Fish, Canned Beef Stew, Canned Potatoes, Canned soup, Canned Fruit, Canned Milk, Baby Formula, Baby Cereal, Powered Milk, Packaged Food, Peanut Butter, Fruits and Juices, Macaroni, Cereal, and Paper goods. Please nothing perishable, frozen or in glass. Please have your donations in a plastic bag for pickup at the front door. Lets help the scouts make sure that the warmth and love of this holiday season is felt by everyone.

As most of you know by now that water meters through out town have been replaced with Radio Read meters. That is the round plastic “bump” in the middle of the water meter lid. If that “Bump” gets damaged over the winter by a snow shovel or snow blower please contact the Town Office as soon as you find the problem. It has nothing to do with reading the meter and everything to do with the hole that will be open up in the top of the water meter vault which will allow the water to freeze. Not only do you take the chance of freezing and busting a pipe but that will cause you a loss of water service until the problem is fixed.
