[October 06, 2014]
MOUNT PULASKI - The City of Mt.
Pulaski Leaf Collection Program has been scheduled. The program will
run from October 13, 2014 to December 8, 2014. We will be utilizing
our Leaf Vacuum to assist our residents with the disposal of leaves.
To help make this program a success, we ask our residents to please
follow the guidelines below:
|
1.) The Leaf Vacuum is designed for leaf removal only. Do not
place sticks, limbs, or other debris in the leaf pile. These foreign
materials may cause damage to the machine and possible injury to
City Personnel. Foreign material will cause us to bypass all of your
leaves!
2.) Placement of the leaves is a key element to the success of the
program. Place the leaves in a row so that they are located within 4
feet of the edge of the pavement.
3.) Keep the leaf piles no higher than 3 feet, for safety and
visibility.
4.) Leaves should be placed and ready for pickup every Monday by
7:30 a.m. We intend to collect leaves on every Monday and will do
the entire town before we start over again. More days will be added
as the work load grows. Please be patient, we will get to your
leaves.

If cars are continuously parked in front of your leaf piles, please
place the leaves at the edge of your driveway.
6.) Do not place leaves on rocks or graveled areas, road ditches, or
on the street.
7.) We can pick up leaves that are either dry or wet. If you have
problems with the leaves blowing, you can wet them down. Another
option is to cover the leaves with a tarp.

Do not place leaves in an area where you have previously had
a fire. We will not vacuum leaves from this area, because of the
potential of smoldering material becoming ignited inside of the
Leaf Vacuum.
Leaves may also be burned in accordance with the City
Ordinances. Copies of the ordinance may be obtained by
contacting City Hall.
Leaves may also be mulched by utilizing a mulching blade on your
lawn mower.
Should you have any questions or concerns about this Leaf
Collection Program, please call City Hall at 792-3222.
