Yard Waste Collection:
Greenwood County Public Works have agreed to pick up yard waste in Newport. We will be on the same schedule as Stoney Point. Yard waste (limbs, sticks, bagged leaves) should be piled in front of your property on the last Sunday of the month, and they will pick the yard waste up sometime during that week. Vacant lots will not receive pick up service. See Yard Waste Pickup document on the Documents page under the POA Documents section.
Boardwalk Update:
Work continues on the boardwalk. As we wait for completion, please be careful in the area and do not walk on any of the materials / repairs.
Newport Flag Program:
The flag program is up and running! This allows Newport an opportunity to show their pride and patriotism by displaying the American Flag in front of our homes and property on 5 holidays per year (Memorial Day, Flag Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, and Veterans Day).
The flag program is also a way for Newport to support local charities. This year Newport made three separate donations of $550 to Tranquility Point, the Pathway House, and to the Humane Society.
