2007 ANNUAL LEAF COLLECTION CAMPAIGN
Frederick, MD -- The City of Frederick Department of Public Works will begin the Annual Leaf Collection Campaign beginning Monday, November 5, 2007 through Wednesday, December 14, 2007. Leaves will be collected in all areas at least 3 times throughout this period. All City residents may begin to set out leaves for collection on Sunday, November 4, 2007. The last date for residents to set leaves out for collection is December 9, 2007. Residents are asked not to rake large leaf piles into the streets PRIOR to November 5th to avoid overloading the street sweepers. If you must place leaves in the gutter prior to the scheduled collection dates, please spread them in a lower pile along the gutter to make it easier for the street sweeper to clean the street. Please use off street parking during this time if available.
For additional information, please contact the Department of Public Works at 301.600.1440.
