BROWNSTOWN, MI

The City of Flemingsburg is a small rural city nestled in the North Eastern hills of Kentucky  surrounded by rolling farm land and hillsides boasting of orange, red, yellow and green. The area has become home to many Amish and Mennonite families because of the rich and fertile land. Flemingsburg takes pride in our beautiful city with brick paved sidewalks and acorn shaped lamps. It is reminiscent of times gone by and a simpler way of life. We also take pride in our citizens who will welcome you with a smile.

Beginning May 2^nd, 2019, the recycling trailers will be moved from the garage by City Hall to the garage on the hill. The trailers will be kept locked behind a gate. There will be an attendant on duty to check that the recyclables can be accepted. Recyclables can only be dropped off between 1p.m. and 4p.m. EVERY Thursday and Friday.
