Yard waste pick up officially begins on 4/07/10.  The pick up day will be the same as last year Thursdays.  They come pretty early so you might want to have it out the night before.  There was an error on the yard waste cards.  The correct rate is $52.25 total  for both seasons.  If you have paid the incorrect rate of $126 please contact ID at 638-9000.
