“Many times, some of our residents aren’t able to physically get all their leaves to the curb for pickup,” Parks Director Christian Mattingly said, “and that’s where we come in and help.”
Volunteers will disperse throughout the city to help residents in need rake the leaves in their front-yard and get them ready for pickup, the release said.
