RESIDENTS PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING:

• ONLY LEAVES ARE PICKED UP- PLEASE, NO STICKS, LIMBS, STUMPS, GRASS CLIPPINGS OR ANY OTHER YARD WASTES
• THIS IS A TENTATIVE SCHEDULE WHICH IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE DEPENDING ON WEATHER, VOLUME OF LEAVES, AND ANY OTHER EMERGENCY THAT MAY ARISE.
• UNDER BOROUGH ORDINANCE, ALL “OPEN BURNING” OF LEAVES IS PROHIBITED.
• DO NOT PLACE YOUR GARBAGE OR RECYCLABLES WITH OR INTO THE LEAVES!

Please note that the curbside leaf pickups are set to end on Friday, November 20, 2009.  Do not place out more leaves after that date!  Any leaves you have remaining may be bagged and placed out for pickup with the weekly garbage.  The Borough DPW crew has to “move on” to other maintenance duties and cannot guarantee that leaves placed out after Nov. 20 will be picked up.  This is especially the case if we get an early snow and leaves get mixed in with snow that is plowed off the streets.
