Why won't city pick up leaves in Longview mobile home park? There are many older people there who need the service. Ms. Jackson plans to go to the media re this situation.

Ms. Bates watched the leaf removal crew and was upset by the fact that it took 7 or 8 people to run 2 or 3 trucks. The collection process was not efficient at all. Too many employees were standing around and no work was being done.
Does NOT want vacuum leaf collection along her small dead-end block of W 10th. Leafer got hung up and damaged her yard trying to turn around several years ago.
Mr. Sutherland wanted to state that by the time the leaves are picked up by the city they've already blown back up into the person's yard, or even worse, their neighbors yard. He recommends that the city limit the number of days before the leaves are picked up so as to eliminate the above problem.
Citizen wants to know why the six houses on his street do not get leaf collection service since they are in the city.
Leaves at 409 S High Street are completely blocking the sidewalk. Dangerous situation, high pedestrian traffic area.
Picture to go with my request for an early pick-up of these leaves on the sidewalk at 409 S High Street. Thanks.
Bags full of leaves have been here for a week not picked up on regular trash day.
Mulched leaves can be emptied between the basketball court and the sidewalk behind the Lutheran church at East Third and Smith road. Mulch will be used at their garden nearby. A few loads of leaves were put there last winter. The leaves will be moved with a bucket loader. The leaf pickup driver in Park Ridge this week was agreeable if his supervisor approves.
The Lutheran church on east Third street has enough mulched leaves for this week. Thank you for the timely action. We will let you know if more are needed after the first batch is distributed.
