Leave the Leaves

It took a while, but temperatures have dropped, and the leaves are following suit. If these leaves happen to fall near storm drains, it's best to clear them away to prevent stresses to our water treatment system. But if falling on turf or soil, leaves often serve a beneficial role to the ecosystem in which they fall. So consider whether it may be sensible for you to "leave the leaves" this fall :)
