Leaf vacuum service will be offered the last 6 weeks of yard waste pick-up, on Wednesdays, the same day as your
trash, recycling and yard waste service starting 10/21. The last pick-up will be 11/25.
Please be aware that due to the volume of leaves any particular week, the leaf collection truck may not always arrive
at your home the same time each week. Please have your leaves ready for pick-up by 6:30 a.m. on Wednesday.
Residents should rake their leaves in a pile or row within 3 feet of the curb but remaining well off the
street. Please make sure to keep the leaves on the parkway and not in the street. Please do not mix large tree
branches, grass, or brush with your pile of leaves as these items will damage the vacuum truck.

PARKWAY TREE REPLACEMENT
The Village is delayed in replacing parkway trees that were taken out this summer season. We lost additional trees as
a result of the EF-1 tornado event on August 2 nd. In addition we will be addressing some failure in the last batch of
trees delivered last season; that nursery is no longer in business.
The Village has been working with several nurseries for quotes on the increased number of trees needed. As more
municipalities are replacing trees due to the Emerald Ash Borer and recent storm damages, trees are in high demand.
We will be sticking to our protocol of planting diversified native species that also perform well as parkway trees.
The Village may only get half the trees planted this fall with the remainder being done in spring. There is a possibility
that all tree planting will take place in the spring. Please be assured that all trees will be replaced and our goal is to
insure healthy and appropriate tree species. Thank you for your patience on this matter.
