    FALL CLEANUP SCHEDULE FOR VILLAGE RESIDENTS

    The Village of Lowville Department of Public Works would like to announce that
    it will again be conducting Fall Cleanup beginning October 22, 2018 and
    running through November 23, 2018. During this period the DPW crews will
    be picking up tree limbs, brush, leaves, and general yard debris that is placed
    at curbside.

    Village residents are reminded that the Village now has a site located out front
    of the Waste Water Treatment Plant on East State Street, where such waste
    can be transported to in your own vehicle. The site is located at the Village
    Wastewater Treatment facility on East State St. and is open every day until it
    snows.  ONLY Village residents will be allowed access to the site. The
    Village is only able to accept branches or trees that are less than 3 inches in
    diameter. No stumps will be accepted.

    Residents are also reminded that all piles of limbs, debris, leaves, brush, etc. to
    be picked up at the curb must be kept individually sorted. Any piles found to be
    mixed together will not be picked up by Village crews. Please note that only
    reasonably sized brush piles will be picked up by village crews. Large piles
    resulting from the removal of trees, shrubbery and hedgerows are the
    responsibility of the property owner. Residents must make private
    arrangements to have these types of wastes removed from their property. After
    November 23, 2018, no further pick-up of any items will occur again until
    Monday April 22, 2019.

    The Department would like to additionally remind residents that it is illegal to
    pile brush, limbs, debris, and leaves beyond the curb line of the street, in any
    ditch line, or in any part of the street itself. Residents may be fined for placing
    such items in the streets; this poses a serious safety hazard to motorists and
    pedestrians as well as acting to plug up the drainage facilities during
    rainstorms. The DPW wishes to thank you in advance for your full cooperation
    in this matter. It is only through your cooperation that we can continue these
    services.
