As leaves start to pile up, please do not place leaves in ditches or along drainage areas.
When leaves get compacted, they can clog storm drains and ditches, which leads to poor drainage and flooding during heavy rain. Keeping these areas clear helps water flow properly and keeps our streets and neighborhoods safer.
We appreciate everyone doing their part to help keep Liberty clean!
This is a series we’d love to continue and grow, and it’s made possible by participation from our local businesses. Since features are submission-based, there may be weeks without a spotlight. Your involvement helps keep Talk of the Town Tuesday going!

West Front Street, between 521 W. Front Street and 18 Cooper Street, also known as Thrill Hill, has been temporarily closed due to safety hazards.
The roadway will remain closed until a full assessment is completed and officials determine that no safety risks remain. Once the area is deemed safe, the road will be reopened to the public.
We appreciate your cooperation and understand that this closure may be frustrating and require detours or extended travel times. Keeping our community safe is our top priority.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
