As crews make their way out for the monthly brush pick-up rounds, anticipate a knock on the door if your brush pile violates the new ordinance.

Monday night at the Clinton City Council meeting, Commissioner of Streets Ken Buchanan says this round of brush pick-up will provide residents the chance to become familiar with the new ordinance by issuing warnings, but after October, citations will be issued.

If residents are not home at the time of crews stopping, they have bright yellow flyers that will be left at your front door indicating which portion of the ordinance you are in violation of.

If you plan on taking Jefferson Street over the railroad tracks near the DeWitt County Friendship Center and DeWitt County Housing Authority's high rise facilities, plan on taking a slight detour. Buchanan indicates that crossing is receiving some improvements.

November will be the final month for brush pick-up before the service is suspended until next year.
