The original schedules for zones 3 & 7 will start on December 8th. Zones 6 and 8 will begin on December 22nd.

“Leaf collection is proceeding as scheduled, and our crews are working very hard on this task. We are currently working in Zones 5 and 1. Please do not be alarmed if you see crews working in your area before your scheduled collection date we are simply trying to stay ahead of schedule. We will return on the advertised scheduled start date for each zone,” said Department of Public Works Superintendent Shawn Bolinsky.

“It is our goal to repeat the first two zones, so please don’t delay,” said Council President Mordechai Burnstein. “Make sure you’re ready during your scheduled week.
