DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:

The No Horsin’ Around with Marion Campaign is the result of the Litter Task Force, which was a collaboration of many local officials, businesses, and agencies who came together with a plan of action to help prevent littering in Marion County.

 

The final plan of action and a new ordinance with strict fines and enforcement was brought before the Commission in late 2022. The Sun Tran bus messaging was advertising that was included in the plan and the final concept of the buses was completed at the end of September 2023.

 

This is our second bus that will be dedicated to spreading the anti-littering message in our community and helping to educate the public on the importance of keeping Marion clean while reminding them that litter is a crime.
