Fall Yard Clean-up
Burning of leaves and yard debris is not permitted by Scio Township in our subdivision. Open burning in Webster Township requires a burn permit; but leaf burning has not been an accepted practice in Loch Alpine for a long time, for air quality reasons.

 

Please remove leaves and debris from ditches, and clear as much debris as possible from culverts adjacent to your lot. This will help proper drainage and reduce water and ice on our streets.

 

No dumping of yard waste material is allowed on any LA property, such as around the lakes and natural areas.

 

Yard waste may be placed in large, craft/paper bags or loose in your own, reusable container with a "yard waste" or "compost" sticker on the container. Please do not tape yard bags -- fold them closed or leave them open at the top. Priority Waste will also pick up properly bundled branches no thicker than 3 inches in diameter tied in bundles no greater than 4 feet in length and 18 inches in diameter.  The last day of yard waste pick-up in Loch Alpine will be December 10.

 

Don't like bagging leaves? Consider mulching or shredding leaves and raking it back into the grass, into garden and flower beds, and scattering it around the roots and stems of plants.
