Leaf Collection Underway until November 25

October 14, 2019

The curbside leaf collection program runs until November 15. Rake leaves to the parkway just inside the edge of the curb for collection. Please do not rake leaves into the streets, as this creates a hazard when leaves are wet. Wet leaves can also lead to clogged storm sewers, increasing the risk of flooded streets and yards. For more information about the leaf collection program, please call the Public Works Department at 847-716-3568.
