We need YOU! Sat, Nov 10, 9 – 11. Leaf cleanup to prevent flooding

Whether you live in an apartment, home or condo, we need you and your neighbors to help. Leaves have started to fall. GWCA Council Members and Block Reps lead an annual street leaf cleanup to clear sewer grates, streets and crosswalks of street leaves. This benefits all the neighborhood by preventing leaves from migrating downhill to their favorite sewer grate and contributing to street, basement and vehicle flooding. The leaves combined with water also turn into slick muck, which can be challenged to pedestrians, especially seniors.

Just bring your family, some neighbors, a rake or dustpan (to scoop leaves) and 10 leaf bags and meet at the Greenview intersection closest to your house. Make new friends and clean up the intersection, then help clean up remaining leaves in your street. For that day only, you can leave your bagged leaves on the parkway for a special pickup. Rain date is November 17.

Can’t help that day? Then please cleanup leaves on your sidewalk, parkway and street in front of your house before November 10th.

Thanks everyone.
