Please use extreme caution when driving through the community. The crews are in full leaf clean-up mode. You may see leaf piles in the streets. The crews will blow leaves into piles and then come around later in the day to vacuum them up. Please do not park in the leaf piles. After leaf cleanup, we will switch to tree and planting replacements (and add bark where planned).
Snow patrol crews are preparing for winter weather, and we are ready for the winter storms. As a reminder: during an extreme weather event, service may be delayed until we can get to the affected areas. Plan ahead and use caution after major storms when driving and walking through the community. Purchase a shovel and ice melt for your sidewalks and driveway.
