area near the curb or edge of the
street, but NOT in the street.
◆ Pile the leaves in the right-of-way.
Do NOT bag leaves as city crews use
trailer-mounted leaf vacuum units.
◆ Please refrain from piling leaves near
mailboxes and do not park in front of

◆ Keep the storm drains clear of leaf
debris. If you have a storm drain in
front of your home, remove the leaf
debris and add it to your leaf pile.
