The City of Beaverton, in conjunction with Clean Water Services (CWS), runs a leaf disposal program each Fall at various locations throughout the city.
The city has implemented this program to help reduce the problem of leaves being raked, dumped, blown, or otherwise deposited in the street near the curb area, creating possible flooding situations when fall and winter rains move the leaves down the curb line to the catch basins. It is also in violation of City ordinances (Obstructing the Right-of-Way 5.05.115 and Dumping Debris in Streets 5.05.095). The City street sweepers cannot remove piles of leaves. Street sweepers are designed to pick up leaves that fall naturally from trees onto our streets.
As always, the City appreciates the cooperative effort its citizens display in keeping our City beautiful. Your efforts, along with the City’s scheduled street sweeping, may help prevent flooding.
