Updated Leaf Pickup (differs from U City Calendar): Nov. 18-Nov. 22 UCity will be picking up leaves from Ames Place street gutters. Please rake your leaves to the street gutters the weekend before. The crews can come by anytime during the week and will only make one pass. They do not pick up in the alleys, so any leaves from the alley or backyards must be brought to the front yard street gutters or to the gutters of Trinity and Kingsland. Please try to keep any leaf piles clear of parked cars so that the crews can easily vacuum them up.
Note: The 6900 block of U. Drive has now been redefined by UCity as an alley from Trinity to Big Bend, thus the 6900 Pershing homes with access in the rear to UDrive must rake all their leaves to the front curb, as is done throughout the rest of Ames Place.
All of the leaves have obviously not yet fallen from the trees, but the city must schedule these pickups a year in advance and nature doesn’t give a lot of leeway to work with. However, we do have a second and final pickup/vacuuming of leaves that is scheduled for the week of Dec. 16-Dec 20.
Reminder: Yard waste bag stickers are not required from 10/15 – 12/31.
