🗓️In an effort to expedite storm debris collection while also maintaining regular sanitation routes, City of Pasadena sanitation crews will now be working 7 days a week.

🚛City of Pasadena sanitation crews and Frontier Waste will continue their regular routes.
🌳Moving forward…please do not use black trash bags for larger tree limbs, branches or shrubbery, this prevents debris removal contractors from identifying debris.
🍃However, smaller debris such as leaves or small twigs may be bagged and placed with your residential trash. Please place larger items in a separate pile on its own.
🆘When placing your trash and storm debris at the curb please separate your waste into the following 3 piles:
1. Tree limbs, branches and other shrubbery
2. Heavy trash
3. Regular trash and/or recycling
🌀Storm recovery can be a gradual process, but we are confident that our community will continue to come together as we have always done. Thank you in advance for your cooperation understanding and patience.
July 13=Adaptive Swim💦PLEASE NOTE: The concession stand will be closed, so personal coolers are allowed. (No glass. No alcohol.)
‼️Updated: 7/10/24‼️Thanks for your understanding as we work day-to-day to get our facilities back up and running! 👀Keep an eye on our social media for updates along the way!
Additional Notes:
➡️No Youth or Adaptive Summer Camps this week.
➡️️River Walking at SWP will be open on 7/11.
‼️No VC camp for the rest of this week. Only staff will be in the building assessing and cleaning up as needed. Thanks for understanding.
In Beryl’s aftermath, stay alert for utility scammers. Ask to see their company identification badge before allowing a utility worker into your home and hang up if you receive calls demanding immediate utility payment to avoid a disconnection.

Wow!!!! It’s awesome to have your community leaders on your side thank you for everyone that played a part this season. Pasadena Little League and the community are grateful for your dedication to the future of our City!!!! God Bless!!!!
At our most recent City Council Meeting, we had many special guests— team members of the Pasadena Little League! Coach Nick Cantu spoke in front of the council and thanked everyone for their generosity in sponsoring 26 kids.
We recently learned that many families in the Pasadena Little League could not afford the signup fee to play on the baseball team, so we collaborated with our community, and several individuals were eager to help!
We are so grateful to our community and the efforts to ensure that kids in our community would be able to play baseball. Sponsorships were provided by the City of Pasadena, Texas – Government Director Rex Lindberg, Pasadena Chamber of Commerce, and several Councilmembers:
Councilman Emmaunel Guerrero
Councilman Ornaldo Ybarra
Councilman Thomas Schoenbein
Councilman Ruben Villarreal
Councilman Dolan Dow
Along with Gringo’s business owner Mr. Russell Ybarra, Attorney at Law Mr. Bernardo Aldape III, Mrs. Jennifer Silva, Mrs. Angela Shem, Miss Drew Garza, Devon Hallford, Officer C. Cardenas (Seabrook P.D.), and Officer D. Garza (Pasadena P.D.).
We thank Mayor Jeff Wagner for throwing the first pitch at the opening game, Police Chief Jerry Wright for sponsoring a child, and for leading the parade on opening day in the P.D. Mustang with Officer M. Aguirre. We also thank our Fire Marshall Chief Brannon for being onboard and bringing his crew with fire trucks for the parade.
The Pasadena Police Department is honored to serve and protect our generous and thoughtful community.
We lost power at Rusk Recreation Center and that center will be closed until further notice. Thanks for understanding.
Another great day on the field! 🎉Congratulations to the winners and thanks again to everyone for coming out! More pictures posting soon! 👏Shoutout to the umpires – we appreciate your willingness to learn and we appreciate Tom Pugil for recruiting, scheduling, and teaching them the wonderful sport of Wheelchair Softball 🥎 ……and double High Fives 🙌 to all of the volunteers in the kitchen and on the fields – you contribute to the success of the event and we couldn’t do it without you! ❤️❤️

🫣↔️DON’T DO THIS TO YOUR CRAPE MYRTLES!!! The City of Pasadena’s Parks and Landscaping team recommends following Texas A&M Forest Service’s guidelines below. Although many have been struggling because of recent freezes and droughts, if you prune and maintain your crape myrtles properly, they will bloom beautifully!!
Texas A&M Forest Service: “Crape myrtles are a common and beautiful sight in landscapes across Texas. Unfortunately, the practice known as “crape murder” is also a common sore-eyed sight seen this time of year. While winter months are typically a good time to prune trees, crape murder is an incorrect pruning practice that removes the entire top of the tree each year, also known as topping.
