As <br /> many residents begin seasonal chores of leaf raking and yard cleanup, the Eugene Public Works <br /> Department requests that residents keep leaves out of the street until the weekend before collection in <br /> your neighborhood begins. Even properly piled leaves can cause local flooding and pollute waterways if <br /> placed in the street prematurely. <br /> This year's leaf collection program in Eugene begins October 30 and continues until early <br /> January. Here's this year's schedule: <br /> • Oct 30 -Nov 3 -Central Eugene <br /> • Nov 6 -Nov 10 - Southest Eugene <br /> • Nov 13 -Nov 17 -Southwest Eugene <br /> • Nov 20 -Nov 22 -West Eugene <br /> • Nov 27 -Dec 1 -North Eugene <br /> • Dec 4 -Dec 8 -Central Eugene <br /> • Dec 11 -Dec 15 -Southeast Eugene <br /> • Dec 18 -Dec 22 -Southwest Eugene <br /> • Dec 26 -Dec 29 - ~~'est Eugene <br /> • Jan 2 -Jan 5 -North Eugene <br /> For tips on how to recycle leaves and for more detailed information about the leaf collection <br /> <br /> schedule, call the City of Eugene leaf hotline at 682-5383 or visit the City of Eugene's home page on the <br /> Internet at ~~zvw.ci.eugene.or.us. <br /> Public Works • Administration • City of Eugene • 858 Pearl Street • Eugene, OR 97401 <br /> Phone: (541) 682-5262 • FAX: (541) 682-6826 • www.ci.eugene.or.us <br /> <br />
