Preparing Leaves for Pick-up:
- Leaves will only be collected if they are raked to the curb in front of the residence OR placed in brown bags and placed at the curb for collection.
- Do NOT rake leaves into the streets. This will not let water get to the drains. Do NOT rake leaves into the streets!
- Other yard waste SHOULD NOT be mixed with the leaves
- Cars should not be parked on or in front of leaf piles. If there is a vehicle blocking the leaves we WILL NOT be able to pick them up.
Safety and Maintenance:
- Parents should remind children NOT to play in leaf piles near the street!
- Residents should make sure that leaves are not near a storm drain.
- Residents should ensure that storm drains are clear of debris.
