Town Prepares To Battle Leaves
Oyster Bay Town is preparing
to tackle the job of removing
felling leaves this month according
to Majority Leader Ralph J.
Marino who announced that the
program will start when the
leaves begin falling.
All of the town's 683 miles of
highways will be included in the
program which will feature the
posting of signs displaying a
large oak leaf marking the areas
that will be serviced.
Leaf pick - up will begin,
weather permitting, within two
days after the signs are placed
and leaf machines will work from
north to south and will spend as
much time as necessary in the
area, depending on the volume.
They will return to the same
areas as needed.
On town roads, leaves should
be accumulated at the curbs for
the street cleaning machines -
vacuum leaf machines and street
sweepers. Shrub cuttings and
other refuse should be placed in
disposable containers and left
for refuse pick up since they
damage leaf collecting equipment,,
The Nassau County Department
of l> ublic Works lias ordered all
leaves on county roads be placed
in disposable containers for regular
refuse pick up.
" Sprinkling of the leaves with
a hose will hold them down, if
necessary, until the area is
serviced," said Marino.
