2010 Leaf Pickup
The Michigan City Street Department will begin fall leaf pickup on Monday, October 25, 2010. If residents would like weekly pickups of their leaves, they may use compost containers or compost/yard waste bags (no plastic bags)available from area merchants. These will be picked up, in the front, by the Refuse Department with regular compost until the week ending November 19, 2010. Leaves will be picked up by request only prior to Monday, October 25, 2010. If citizens have branches that need picked up please call in your requests to the Central Service Department at 873-1500.
Mayor Chuck Oberlie is requesting that residents cooperate by following these rules: No plastic bags are to be used, branches, rocks and other debris must be kept out of the leaf piles, leaf piles should be loose in large piles in front of the property as close to the curb as possible, but away from the sewer drains.
