BACKGROUND:
The Department of Public Works - Operations Division (DPW) provides annual curbside leaf collection services. The current bulk curbside leaf collection program is structured so the entire City has three collection opportunities during the season, which equates to one pickup every two weeks. Historically, the program begins six weeks prior to Thanksgiving Day, and every other Monday (the first, third, and fifth weeks), a new collection cycle begins. The City is divided into 20 leaf districts and has historically contracted out districts 10 and 12, with the remainder of the districts managed by DPW staff.
