Volunteers cleaned up 1,200 pounds of illegally dumped trash Wednesday on the side of Tumbling Creek Circle. Although it is getting better, illegal dumping is a problem for local Code Enforcement officers, the Georgia Department of Natural Resources and Keep Hall Beautiful, a local nonprofit that coordinated the cleanup. “It is a huge problem,” said Kelly Norman, executive director of Keep Hall Beautiful, “but we are steadily and diligently working to keep this problem under control.”
