Highway Superintendent Doug Eddy asks:
Please - make sure you put out material for Spring Cleanup before we come. If you're not sure whether we've done your street, please call our office. If we've already done your street, what you put out will remain there.
If you use biodegradable bags for material you put out, please protect them from water if they will be out for more than a day or two. Put a tarp under them and cover them with a tarp. Otherwise the bags rot, and it's difficult for our crews to pick them up because they fall apart.
