City officials say that during this time leaves may be placed in piles along the back of the curb and will be removed by vacuum machines.
However, they say there are some guidelines you need to follow to make the process work efficiently:
*Do not place piles of leaves in or on the street. This creates a driving hazard, and could result in an accident.
*Leaves placed on the street are often washed into the City's storm sewer when it rains.
*Place leaves in long narrow piles along the back of the curb.
*Remove all trash, dirt, brush clippings, grass clippings, rocks, limbs or sticks longer than six inches. These sticks and other yard waste can damage mulching equipment, and piles containing these items will not be collected.
For leaf collection, the city has been divided into two zones.
Zone 1 includes all portions of the City west of a line down Thompson Bridge Road (SR60), along Green Street and south along E.E. Butler (US 129).
Zone 2 includes all portions of the City east and north of a line down Thompson Bridge Road (SR60), along Green Street and south along E.E. Butler (US129).
Leaf collection will alternate between the two zones as follows:
Zone 1: 1st&3rd week of month.
Zone 2: 2nd&4th week of month.
City officials ask that all leaves be placed at curbside, no later than Monday morning of of each week listed above. Leaves not placed at curbside by Monday morning may not be picked up if City crews have already completed pickup in that area.
