City Of Le Sueur issued the following announcement on Oct. 08.
The fall season is upon us! Leaves are changing color and falling pretty rapidly here in Le Sueur.
As a reminder, leaves and grass clippings that are blown into the street wash into storm drains and end up in our rivers and streams. As this material decomposes in the water, it can degrade aquatic habitats. Leaves can also clog storm drains and potentially cause flooding.
You can use leaves and grass clippings as compost or mulch or bring them to the City’s compost site located off Boright Street.
