[More Details]

The City provides seasonal loose leaf collection from Oct. 29, 2007 until Feb. 29, 2008.

Guidelines

Following are some preparation guidelines for loose leaves:

1 Leaves should be raked behind the curb, NOT in the gutter. Putting leaves in the gutter can cause drainage and/or traffic problems.

2 Do NOT mix sticks, rocks, pine cones, limbs, or other debris with loose leaves. Vacuum equipment cannot collect anything but loose leaves.

3 Do NOT park cars too close to leaf piles. This could prevent collection and could also cause a fire hazard.

4Do NOT place loose leaves in automated containers. This causes them to scatter and blow during collection.

The most efficient method of leaf collection is bagging your leaves. If you choose to bag leaves, limit the weight of the bags to 50 pounds or less and put them at the curb on your regular trash collection day.

If you have questions about leaf collection service, call Public Works Services at 883-3944.
