Author    Post   Ryan Eashoo F L I N T O I D Actually the leaves aren't done being picked up, maybe 2 - 4 more weeks and they will be done. The problem they are running into now is that the trucks for leave pick up are also for salting and plowing. _________________ Flint Michigan Resident, Tax Payer, Flint Nutt - Local REALTOR - Activist. www.FlintTown.com Fri Dec 10, 2010 9:59 pm  Dave Starr F L I N T O I D They sort of got ours yesterday. Lots of leaves plowed onto yards or left in the street. According to Mayor Eason, there won't be a pickup next year. Salting and plowing??? Where??? Why?? We haven't had any snow to speak of yet. _________________ I used to care, but I take a pill for that now. Pushing buttons sure can be fun.

Th leaves were covered with snow and the pickup was so bad that all of the storm drains are filled with leaves on the intersections.

People did not pick up the leaves in the street and they froze and clogged up the storm drains. When spring came the drains were still iced over and the streets flooded.

Small lots. Can;t burn leaves and not everyone has mulching lawnmowers. There has to be some solution. Our house had leaves from 7 large trees.
