**Farmer & Allegan St. (M-89) – Oct 31 -
2nd Round – Nov. 11 – Nov. 14
**Farmer & Allegan St. (M-89) – Nov. 14
**PLEASE NOTE THAT RANDOM PICKUPS MAY OCCUR BEFORE AND BETWEEN SCHEDULED PICKUPS.
**Please do not put the leaves out before October 26th
Watch for additional announcements on the City’s Website, in the “Shoppers Guide”, and Facebook.
The City’s policy is to canvass all streets at least twice during the two week pick-up period. If the I eaves are not in the street they will not be picked up. REMEMBER: With the exception of Allegan Street & Farmer Street, all leaves are to be raked into the street next to the curb. FINAL ROUND OF PICK-UP WILL BE FOLLOWED BY THE STREET SWEEPER. Once the Street Sweeper has passed pick-up is complete.
Please do not place anything except leaves in the street. The City places these leaves on a compost pile and therefore, branches, twigs and other yard waste must not be included. Brush and other yard waste may be taken to the City’s Transfer Station free of charge. It is the City’s policy to canvass the City two times. If leaves are placed in the street after completion of the canvas sing, they will not be removed. It is the resident’s responsibility to dispose of the leaves at the Transfer Station.
