Effective July 1, 2019, there is a new Anti-Litter Ordinance for Elkhart County. Please make sure your loads are covered and securely tied down when arriving.

The first fine is $250 and each subsequent fine after will be $500.

A Sheriff's Office official will enforce this ordinance. He will patrol and look for uncovered loads as well as loads covered incorrectly and are losing debris.
