Welcome to the official website of the City of Sycamore, Illinois.

During the week of December 19th Waste Management will begin delivering 64-gallon recycling carts to each residence.  These rolling toters have lids and recyclables will be picked up weekly along with refuse collection.  These carts should help contain recyclable materials and keep blowing debris from littering your neighborhood.  Senior citizens can request a smaller 35-gallon recycling cart, however Waste Management has requested that the 64-gallon cart be used before considering the switch.  The new carts allow residents to mix all of their recyclables including items such as newspapers, cardboard boxes, glass containers, plastics and metals.  Questions can be directed to Waste Managment at 1-800-796-9696.

Many exciting events are planned for downtown Sycamore.  Santa's house is now open on the courthouse lawn.  Santa will be present Friday's from 5-7pm, Saturdays from 11am-2pm and Sundays from noon-2pm.  Additionally, on December 16th and 17th the Sycamore Park District will host Cookies with Santa.

As winter approaches, residents are reminded that after 2 inches of snowfall all vehicles need to be removed from city streets to allow for snow removal.  If snowfall occurs overnight, residents have until 7am the following morning to move their vehicles off the street.
