Iowa City Update is a weekly video featuring City of Iowa City projects, programs, and events. Topics this week include some park improvements happening this spring, an easy way you can help prevent landfill fires, and new options to recycle e-scooters and e-bike batteries.

Park projects
There's more than just spring flowers popping up! Learn about four park projects that aim to improve playground equipment and accessibility.

Safely dispose of batteries
With five fires at the landfill already this year, we're reminding people to properly dispose of batteries at several drop-off locations in Iowa City, Coralville, and North Liberty.

Recycling for e-bike batteries and e-scooters
E-bike batteries and e-scooters also should not go into the regular trash or recycling. Learn about the different options to safely recycle these electronic devices.
