To the Editor:

It is a lovely winter Saturday and my neighborhood is abuzz with the sound of leaf blowers. The sad part about this sound, in addition to the noise, is the knowledge that the streets will have more leaf piles in Section One of Princeton which has already had its last unbagged leaf pick up. I know that Public Works will probably add another day in the future for leaf pickup, but until then the streets in our city remain a dangerous slalom course.

Neighbors please log into the princetonnj.gov website to find out about what days your section is having pick ups or better yet have an automatic reminder left on your phone. Until we as a community coordinate when we bring out our yard debris, this town will always appear a bit disheveled. Please have pride in our town and consideration for our neighbors.
