Residents are asked to follow these guidelines for the
collection of fall leaves:

day
• Keep leaves away from storm inlets, fire hydrants, and utility boxes.
• Keep leaf piles within 4 feet of the curb.
• On streets without curb and gutter, place leaves along the front property line, close to
the street.
• Keep vehicles at least 4 feet away from leaf piles.
• For your safety, do not park vehicles on leaf piles.
• Do not place equipment or toys near the leaves.
• Do not mix grass clippings, yard waste, brush, or trash with leaves.
** Leaf piles that do not meet the above guidelines may not be collected. **
