The city will collect yard waste placed in paper bags on your regular trash collection day. The city will NOT collect yard waste on bulk collection day. Yard waste placed in plastic bags WILL NOT be picked up at any time, nor should it be taken to the Southfield Yard. The plastic is not biodegradable like the brown paper bags. Yard waste may also be placed in personal cans that do not exceed 32 gallons. Tree limbs should be less than 2 inches in diameter and no more than 4 feet long, in a neat pile.

The cleanup got off to a bit of a late start, but utilizing five volunteers eight properties were able to receive attention. Some of these properties still could use more work, and there are obviously properties we were not aware of. Our focus this time was three pronged: 1) clearing overgrowth away from the main structure, 2) properties we had received complaints on, 3) the most visible of the problems. We will likely do this again sometime, possibly before the winter season comes. What we ask of the neighbors is to help keep the properties maintained.
