Vacuum Leaf Program Update (December 12, 2019)

By Stephen Dasko Events, Issues, Resources, Uncategorized

Vacuum Leaf Program is moving ahead

This has been a challenging season for the Vacuum Leaf Program with having three disruptive snow storms during the program. You would have received a colour coded notice card in the mail in the early fall with the pick-up dates for your area. Green and Yellow have now been completed. Crews have now moved into the Blue Zone, which included the Mineola’s and parts of Port Credit. They are working diligently to get the program completed.

I would like to thank our residents for their patience and understanding during this challenging season.
