Leaf pickup activities are headed to Browne’s Addition this week. Vehicles must be moved in this neighborhood, between Riverside and Second Avenue/Sunset Boulevard and between Maple and Coeur d’Alene streets, to accommodate these activities. 

Vehicles in Browne’s Addition neighborhood must be moved by 7 a.m. each day from:

  • North-south streets on Wednesday, Dec. 8
  • East-west streets on Thursday, Dec. 9

Parking restrictions are needed in Browne’s Addition during leaf pickup because the narrow streets can’t accommodate the large trucks needed for this work with parked vehicles lining the streets. Informational signage will be posted at the entrances to Browne’s Addition to notify residents of parking restrictions.

Streets cleared of leaves provide safer driving conditions during winter snow and ice. Removing leaves from the streets also helps prevent clogged storm drains. More information on leaf pickup is available on the City’s leaf pickup webpage.
