Library Card Upgrade!

September is Library Card Sign-Up Month, and we have exciting news at the Sachse Public Library. We are introducing our NEW library card design!

All month long, both new and current library users can stop by the Sachse Public Library to receive one of the new library cards, and library card replacement fees during the month of September are waived.

To register for a library card, visitors will need a photo ID with a current Texas address listed, or a photo ID and a separate document (such as a utility bill, lease, or car insurance) with a name and current Texas address.

As an added bonus for Library Card Sign-Up Month, everyone who receives one of the new library cards in September will receive a special offer from Cold Stone Creamery! A big thanks to Cold Stone at the Station!

National Night Out

National Night Out is an annual community-building campaign that promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make our neighborhoods safer, more caring places to live. National Night Out enhances the relationship between neighbors and law enforcement while bringing back a true sense of community. Furthermore, it provides a great opportunity to bring police and neighbors together under positive circumstances.

Millions of neighbors take part in National Night Out across thousands of communities from all fifty states, U.S. territories, and military bases worldwide on the first Tuesday in August (Texas celebrates on the first Tuesday in October). Neighborhoods host block parties, festivals, parades, cookouts and various other community events with safety demonstrations, seminars, youth events, visits from emergency personnel, exhibits and much, much more.

Here in Sachse we will celebrating NNO with the rest of Texas on Tuesday, October 4, 2022. Block party applications can be obtained here.

NNO is always one of our favorite events of the year, we look forward to getting out and meeting you. If you have any questions, please contact Sgt. Wills at jwills@cityofsachse.com.

Discover Your Bulk & Brush Collection Day

The City has new times to set out your bulk trash and brush collection. Bulk trash needs to be placed out no earlier than 48 hours prior to your scheduled collection day. What about brush? It goes out on the Saturday prior to your collection day.
