During the week of Oct. 17 residents can place leaf and grass clippings out for curbside collection on their regular trash day.

A separate collection truck will come by and take the material as long as it is placed in biodegradable paper bags or in uncovered barrels – material will not be collected if stored in any type of plastic bags.
