  • The first horseless police vehicle ever introduced in the States, it had seating space for 12 people and was operated by Officer Louis Mueller Sr.
  • The car, which was designed by the mechanical engineer Frank Loomis, was often called a squad car, since it was used to transport a squad of police officers to a scene.
  • According to the US EPA, Clinton Township’s Tesla Model Y police cruisers have a 326-mile range and the Model 3 used by Code Enforcement can go 250 miles before needing charged.
  • Clinton Township’s Tesla Ys have dual all-wheel drive 384hp engines and the Tesla 3 is a rear-wheel drive dual 284hp engine vehicle.

Trash, Recycling and Yard Waste Information

Why Recycling Matters

The amount of waste created by central Ohio residents and businesses is staggering.  In fact, every resident generates an average of 9 to 10 pounds of waste each day, of which half comes to the landfill.  With only so much landfill space available, it’s more important than ever that we reuse, recycle, compost or divert as much as we can.
