Description

Bagged Leaf pickup was performed today at around 3:30PM. There were 8 bags of leaves at the side of road. The payloader picked them up and cause property damage to the lawn as shown in the attached photo. As you can see a feet of soil was removed that was 10 ft long! Normally, the bags are pushed to the street by a crew member but it was not done this year! Payloaders can cause a lot of damage whether they are operated correctly or not so for this reason the process must be improved by having a crew member move bags of leaves away from someone's property. I would like for someone to come fix this ASAP and grading it properly while maintaining the sod that is there. Otherwise, it will erode further this winter and wash away. Unfortunately, it cannot be seeded at this time of year and it looks bad. This is unacceptable! I have never had a problem in the 30 years that I have lived here. Actually, they have done a great job with leaf and brush pickup in the past and including the paving that was done recently. So, something changed and you need to find out what it is and do better next time.
