Despite your expensive and propagandistic program to force acceptance of your leaf-bagging program, I remain unconvinced.

Listen to the people and then legislate; do not force acceptance of your discontinuance of a long-popular program without study or input.

It’s time to rethink past actions and restore leaf pickup while there is time to plan and budget for next year. I see the bags at the curb soaking in the rain and think of all the work this has created for both the homeowner and the poor guy that needs to hoist them into the truck.

You should think of that, too. Then vote the money for 2025.
