And the sky is gray as City of Greencastle leaf pickup efforts are in full swing through Nov. 30. Using the leaf vac, city Department of Public Works employees are clearing neighborhoods, like here in the Northwood Addition, of autumn leaves that have been falling in earnest with the recent cold snap and windy conditions. Residents within city limits are advised to rake leaves to the edge of the street or into the area between the street and sidewalk -- but never into the roadway. The piles should contain no sticks or trash. Leaves should be out at the curb the day before trash day to assure prompt pick-up.
