TREE CARE

When mowing and trimming around trees, please avoid hitting the base of the tree. 

There are quite a few terrace trees with bark torn from the base, due to mowing and trimming too close to the tree.  If this occurs too often, there is a good chance the tree will die. 

When a terrace tree dies, the replacement time could take up to 5 years, due to commitments in other areas of the community.

LEAF PICKUP

Leaf pick up will begin 
October 4, 2010
and continue through November 19, 2010
weather permitting. 

Rake leaves to the terrace, not into the street, DO NOT put leaves in bags. Leaves, which are placed in bags or any container will not be picked up.

Do not rake twigs or branches with the leaves, they will clog the vacuum.

Please keep plastic and paper out of the piles.

Rake leaves into low piles so children are not hidden from motorist's view.

Pick up will start at the west-end of the Village and move east, completing as soon as possible.
It takes about two weeks to make one round of the entire village, so please be patient and rake accordingly. 

Please be aware that the street sweeper is different from the leaf vacuum. The sweeper only sweeps streets, not piles of leaves.
