Leaf Collection

Fall curbside leaf sweeping begins the first week of October and runs through November, weekdays only. Leaf collection is not guaranteed - it will be done as time and weather permit.

If you notice a storm drain is covered or clogged by leaves and debris, please help to prevent any water ponding or flooding by removing the debris from the drain area.

Make Paying Your Water Bill Easier!

Avoid the hassle of writing checks and worrying about late fees by signing up for AUTO-PAY for automatic withdrawal from a selected bank account.
You will still receive the mailed paper bill reflecting your usage and charges. Funds will then be automatically withdrawn from your account on the quarterly billing due date. This will be noted on your bill.
