UCD was out in force on Saturday and did a tremendous job. We arrived back at our house after running errands to find a team of volunteers ranking leaves into the street. (Apparently, they had started out on the 4600 block of Hazel but were chased away after one was mugged, another had his bike stolen and gun fire broke out).
A City vacuum truck arrived and was able to pick up the leaves on one side before it filled up. (I had seen it arrive in the 'hood at around 9:00 while having coffee at the Green Line). They were not able to continue because they had no place to dump. John Fenton from UCD dispatchd a team of the small yellow vacuum trucks (at one time, four of them were working on the street) and they picked up the remainder of the leaves. During the morning when I was out and about and in the afternoon when I was working outside, UCD trucks and personnel were all over the place. It is my understanding that UCD will be out again today to pick up the bags piled on the corners and to do additional clean-up work. I want to express my thanks to John Fenton and UCD for all their hard work and the coordination of the clearn-up effort. I was totally impressed. -- Jonathan A.
