STREET COMMISSIONER: NO MORE LEAF PICKUPS THIS YEAR

The temperature climbed up slightly this weekend and will remain above freezing this week. With the warmer, dry weather, residents may feel tempted to rake their remaining leaves.

However, the Street Department will NOT do any more leaf collection rounds this year, as stated previously. Street Commissioner David Gibbs asks residents to keep their piled leaves away from the roadways, as they can interfere with the flow of traffic and, if it snows, the snow plows will be forced to drive over the leaf piles and end up throwing leaves back into the yard. 

Residents who still want to clean their yards and are able to, can take their leaves to the Environmental Center at 20100 CR 29. The Environmental Center will take leaves at no fee to Goshen Residents (proof of residency will be required). 

The center is open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. The Environmental’s phone number is 533.6200.
