1.  Yes on Rumpke continuing as our waste removal service.  They do a great job, especially with yard waste.  Which brings me to the other 2 subjects:

2.  Someone is still allowing their dog to use my yard as a bathroom (north chadwick).  I've even stepped in it while putting up Christmas lights.  Eewwww.  Anything I would do to the yard to discourage this (not that anything really works) would only hurt the dog and that isn't the animal I wish to discourage.  Please clean up after your dog!!!

3.  It would be lovely if we had a leaf removal service similar to St Matthews in which the leaves are raked to the street and vacuumed up.  Leaf pick-up is becoming a full-time job, especially as I grow older and one that seems to have no other purpose except to make

the place "look good".

Thank you for the comment.

If you catch the dog in the act report the owner

I will find out how much it cost to do leave removal but I don't know where the mondy would come from the budget is way tight now.

I would be happy to helpyou clean up the leaves/

Please note the date on this reply!  I still have leaves in the back yard - tons of them (this in spite of a compost pile) - b/c the snow came so early and I got lazy.  I do appreciate the offer, but know that everyone who lives here is constantly busy with yard work of one kind or another.  Trees are messy, but love the shelter they provide to the birds.  The birds are wonderful this year.  Please, everyone, keep your cats in the house!!  Can't do anything about the hawks who also troll for birds, but we should try to keep the trolling to a minimum.  Thanks PWA
