After this week, there's only one more opportunity for brush pick up in Clinton.

Clinton Commissioner of Streets and Public Improvements Ken Buchanan reminded residents at the Monday night Clinton City Council meeting city crews will pick up brush one more time in November, otherwise, you can put brush in paper bags starting in December and put those near the curb. He anticipates the yard waste facility being open throughout the winter.

Buchanan says leaf pick-up will likely begin the first part of November as right now leaves are not falling significantly enough to start dedicating daily time to it.

ResidentS may also have noticed the sidewalk work on North Center Street has started. Buchanan indicates that is moving right along.

Also at the Monday night Clinton City Council meeting, the Council approved a half-million-dollar purchase of a fire engine for the fire department.
