===== Also, a reminder about Leaf Collection (from Town of Ithaca flyer) =====

Leaf collection will begin at 7 a.m. on Monday, November 4th and will
continue throughout the week until finished.

Leaves should be at the curb by 7:00 a.m. on the first day of collection.
Leaves may be raked to the shoulder of the road or bagged in biodegradable paper leaf bags (30-gallon bags are available at many stores in the area).

Other debris such as pine needles, dead flowers, garden waste, grass clippings, etc., cannot be vacuumed and should be placed in bags. Please fill the bags and place them on the road shoulder, folding over the openings of the bags to close. Do not staple or tape openings. No plastic bags will be picked up.

The Town’s crews will go around the entire Town once with the leaf vacuum.

For the rest of the month of November, the crews will begin picking up paper-bagged leaves each Monday, which could extend through early week to encompass the entire Town.

Please note that we may send out leaf crews earlier than November 4th to test our equipment and to pick up paper-bagged leaves before they get wet.
