Please rake leaves into the street in piles or wind rows at your curb and park vehicles away from piles, so they are accessible. On Monday of each week, City 6 crews will start vacuuming leaves at South Boulder Road and work south through Old Town, by weeks end. - * The "Bagged Leaf Collection Program"will be provided to all other City neighborhoods. City crews will start picking up bags each from Monday, October 24—November 21. It can take two to three days to complete this task each week, so please be patient if we do not get to them on Monday.
