Clinton's neighbor to the west is considering offering a service similar to what is offered now.

During October and November, leaf cleanup becomes almost an all-hands-on-deck effort in Clinton as the public works department picks up leaves residents push to the curbs. Lincoln Mayor Tracy Welch says leaf cleanup in his community looks a little different right now.

According to the Mayor, they have explored offering a similar service to that of Clinton where they'd have multiple leaf vac trucks make their way around the community to pick up leaves.

For the community, the cost of the leaf vacs is one of the big sticking points because they are not cheap machines says Mayor Welch.

Mayor Welch believes the City of Lincoln has the manpower to make an effort like that work in his community.

It's been all hands on deck leading up to this week getting ready for Christmas in Lincoln. The Mayor says the Lincoln Public Works staff always has something they are focused on.
