While the city does contract a street sweeping service, yard debris from private property does not fall within the contracted services and is not within the capacity of the equipment used for their regular routes. Residents are NOT to place yard debris, including leaves, trimmings, sod, lawn clippings, etc, into the street. Residents and landscaping services are to remove yard debris to a designated disposal facility, use an approved removal service, or a self-contained compost unit on private property. Discharge into the storm drain or placement in the right of way is a violation of city ordinances and may result in a citation.
