Leaf collection extended
Though the wind today is trying to knock those leaves off the trees once and for all, there's no doubt that autumn is lingering longer than usual. Hence this morning's press release from public works:
Due to the late fall leaf season, Public Works will be extending the leaf and yard waste collection service period for residents that are eligible for curbside rubbish and recycling services. Leaf bags and yard waste will be collected curbside through December 14th, 2007.
Bagged leaves are only collected in brown (recyclable) paper leaf bags available at most home and garden stores. Residents are asked to bring leaf bags to the curb as soon as they are filled and leave them until collected. Leaf bags are typically collected on the regular rubbish collection day.
Please remember that leaf bags and yard waste barrels must be placed 5 feet away from any other barrel or container. Leaf bags and yard waste barrels can not contain dirt, sand, rocks, or sod. Yard waste barrel contents should be loose enough to allow material to freely exit the barrel when tipped.
Residents are encouraged to clear leaves from the tops of catch basins abutting their property during the fall leaf collection period to help prevent localized flooding conditions during the fall and winter months.
Residents may also bring leaves and other yard waste, year round, to the City of Bristol Transfer Station at 685 Lake Avenue. A permit is required to access the Transfer Station, which can be purchased Monday – Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM at Public Works in City Hall (ground floor) or at the Transfer Station on Saturday mornings.
If you have any questions, please contact Public Works at (860) 584-6125.
