Definition of a Good Neighbor Someone to be trusted; a courteous, friendly source of help when help is needed; someone you can count on; someone who cares. - Edward B. Rust Jr. Welcome New Neighbors Introduce yourself to your new neighbors. Share important information that will make it easier to navigate through their new City. A little goodwill early on can go a long way toward better neighbor relationships in the future.like when you need to have that awkward conversation about their dog barking all night long.. Or to ask if they can spare a cup of sugar. If you have been in your new neighborhood for a few weeks and have not had the opportunity to meet your neighbors; break the ice and introduce yourself. Noise Be mindful that your neighbor may not have the same sleep schedule as you. Be respectful of the loudness of your automobile / motorcycle/ UTV in proximity to your neighbor's home. Be respectful when hosting a gathering and music played during the late evening hours. Keep Up Your Curb Appeal A good neighbor is one who maintains the exterior of the house and lawn. It is as simple as mowing the lawn, removing all trash and debris from the front yard, and ensuring trees and shrubs are trimmed. Just one ugly home can reduce property values for the entire neighborhood. Good Neighbors are Tidy. Respect your neighbors and they will respect you. Keep trash receptacles hidden in the side yard or behind the house and keep the exterior of your home appealing. If you are having difficulty in keeping up your "Curb Appeal", reach out to one of your neighbors for a helping hand. If you have a neighbor on the block who appears to be struggling with their curb appeal, grab a couple neighbors to lend a helping hand. Be a Responsible Pet Owner Pet Etiquette 101: Clean up after your pet and keep the noise in check. Neighbors enjoy their porches, don't make them resent your pets because their waste is not managed properly. Make sure that a dog prone to barking in outside spaces isn't let out late at night or too early in the morning. Don't let your dog "go" in your neighbors. outside space, either. Consider offering to walk their dog or feed a cat or fish while they.re away. Respect Enough said. Share Important Information We have a ton of fun and exciting things to offer in Carbondale. We want all of our residents to enjoy the exceptional Quality of Life we have in our great City. A list of important numbers can be found below. Speaking of numbers, check to see if you and your neighbor can exchange numbers. After all, what if they receive your package by mistake? What if the house floods while you.re on vacation?

STORMWATER RUNOFF HAVE YOU EVER SEEN SIGNS READING "STOP THE RAIN TAX" AND WONDERED WHAT THAT IS ALL ABOUT? MAYBE THIS WILL HELP! There are a great many pollutants that are carried into streams, rivers, and other waterways by stormwater (rain and melting snow). Things such as sediment, oil, dog waste, salt, and lawn & garden nutrients are washed into storm drains and ultimately into surface waters. These pollutants degrade the water, kill fish and wildlife, and limit recreational use of many of Pennsylvania's rivers and lakes. In order to protect waterways, the Federal Government has decreed that certain urbanized areas must take steps to control stormwater runoff. These steps are part of a program known as MS4 (Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System). Some government agencies have enacted a fee to control, treat, or limit the stormwater runoff entering our waterways. Many people have called it a "Rain Tax". Regardless of the measures taken to control stormwater runoff, something has to be implemented now to protect waterways from further degradation. Be STORMWATER SMART and read more on MS4 at www.dep.pa.gov or www.epa.gov. There are also other stormwater links on the KBA website www.kbapc.net. 1 North Main St Carbondale PA 18407 USA+1 (570) 282 4632Contact Us © 2026 City Of Carbondale PA. All rights reserved.
