Trash Collection Delayed One Day Through Saturday

Fishers, IN · July 7, 2026

The humidity is taking a breather this morning, making it a perfect window to clear those post-holiday weeds before the clouds settle in. Most of the neighborhood is still shaking off the long weekend, but the mowers are already out in force at the municipal parks.

📰 The Lead

The skyline near 121st Street and Hoosier Road is looking significantly different this week as structural steel for the new Fishers Community Center at Johnson Farm is now fully in place. This 105,000-square-foot facility is designed to be the city’s first true indoor recreation hub, featuring a massive gymnasium, an indoor playground, and a dedicated wing for the local senior community. Crews are pivoting to roofing and exterior enclosure work this month to ensure the building is weather-tight before the autumn rains. While the grand opening isn't until next spring, the city is already vetting vendors for the cafe and childcare spaces. Expect a slight increase in heavy equipment traffic along Hoosier Road through Friday as large-scale HVAC units are craned onto the roof.
