Kalamazoo Sets Storm Clean-up

The City of Kalamazoo says it will help residents clean-up after recent storms with special brush pick-ups this month. The city's Department of Public Services says the pick-ups will start next Monday and run through the 26th.

The pick-ups will be in areas where the city hasn't picked up storm debris so far. According to a news release issued by the city, the three areas affected by the pick-ups next week are:

M43 to the south city limits from Drake Road to Oakland Drive

Kalamazoo Avenue to the south city limits from Oakland Drive to Portage Street

Kalamazoo Avenue to the south city limits from Portage Street to the east city limits.

Kalamazoo officials say residents in those areas should have limbs and branches on the curb lawn no later tham 7 a.m. on Monday, September 22. There will not be any repeat pick-ups.
