First, old tires collect water and are a breeding ground for mosquitoes. Those mosquitoes can carry many viruses including the Zika Virus. We want to prevent such things from developing in Benton.<\/p>\n<p>Second, we want to give all residents a free opportunity to dispose of those old, used, and unwanted tires. This opportunity is provided in advance of a new policy that will begin in June regarding citations for tires being left on properties in the City.<\/p>\n<p>Starting in June, any property owner with a tire found left on their property will be cited. This will be followed with a fine if the tire is not properly stored or removed in the specified time. This fine will be $25.00 per tire.<\/p>\n<p>We hope that our residents will utilize the free opportunity we are providing and help us clean-up the City of Benton!<\/p>\n<p><strong>NOTE: Tires are to be dropped off at Earth Services at 14716 Hwy 14 East, Benton, IL\u00a0 ONLY during the times listed!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Saturday, May 28 at 9:00 AM &#8211; 1:00 PM in CDT The City of Benton is sponsoring a Tire Clean-up Days in May in order to allow residents the opportunity to dispose of their old, used tires!
