2025 SUMMER CONCERT SERIES IN MEMORIAL PARK

The Village of Hamburg and Village of Hamburg Community Foundation are excited to announce that the Summer Concert Series in Memorial Park is set to officially kick off on June 11!  It will feature another summer of music in the Park, with the Wednesday evening concert series running through August 11th.  With a mix of big band, rock and roll through the ages, jazz & R&B, and even a little bit of country, there is something for everyone.  Please come out to the Park and enjoy this family friendly (and free!) concert series.  The Village and Foundation would like to thank the sponsors - Corporate, Virtuoso, Maestros and Composers - individuals and local business owners who support the Series and make it possible to continue to offer this great entertainment for free to the public.  We could not do it without their support.

MEMORIAL DAY SANITATION SCHEDULE

Reminder - Garbage and Recycle collection is delayed one day the week of May 25 due to the Memorial Day Holiday (Friday's route will be collected on Saturday, May 31).

WATER TOWER PROJECT

Work on the Village's new water tower continues as contractors and engineers work to complete the tower foundation.  Once the foundation is poured, construction of the concrete shaft will begin.  Shaft construction is expected to take place this summer and fall.  Click here for photo updates on the project.

SUMMER YARD WASTE COLLECTION

Beginning May 12, 2025, yard waste (clippings, weeds, flowers - no rocks) should now preferably be placed in open containers for the summer (never in bags, not in the street and not in your tote) and put at the curb for collection.  While we strive to pick up yard waste on your regular garbage day, this schedule cannot always be adhered to depending on volume.   Leave it at the curb - it will be picked up.   REMINDER - The Village does not pick up grass/grass clippings.  Larger branches/limbs are for brush pickup which always starts the last Monday of the month (does not have to be a full week).  Questions? Contact Public Works at 716-649-4953.
