Tentative Fall Leaf Collection
Tentatively, the Village is planning for fall leaf collection to begin around October 20th in Zone One. The attached map identifies the zones being used for 2025.
As DPW staff will again be using a leaf vacuum, please rake leaves to the edge of the street, where they can be reached by the equipment. Staff are anticipating spending 2 days in each zone.
If necessary, a round two is planned and will likely begin around November 17th at the earliest.
