Curb Side Leaf Collection Policy
Objective: To provide Village residents and business owners
with an economical way of disposing Leaves without burning.
Goal: Collect all Leaves that are placed in Village owned
Right-of-Way each weekday or the following day after
a Holiday or weekend.
Rules:
- Leaf piles are to be placed so that vacuum equipment
can be used. Placing leaves around mail boxes, sign
or utility poles and intersections cause delays in
the collection process.
- Landscape waste such as grass clippings, garden waste
are prohibited due to the potential of chemical residues,
that may interfere with crop growth on land in which
the leaves are applied..
- Mixed piles of leaves and tree limbs or other landscape
waste shall not be collected.
- Burning of leaves is permitted. The Village Burn
Ordinance shall apply.
- Leaves must be in place for collection by 8:00 AM
of the collection day.
- The Village staff has a right to refuse to remove
any landscape waste deemed not in compliance with
our guidelines.
- It is not the Village Staffs responsibility to assist
Village residents in removing Landscape waste that
does not qualify as leaves.
Passed by the Board of Trustees of the Village of Forsyth, Illinois, this 19th,
day of October, 2009
