The City of Aurora's free leaf collection was scheduled to conclude this week, but has been extended until Friday, Dec. 9.

"With this unseasonal weather, trees are still dropping their leaves and residents can use an extra week to clean their yards,"said Aurora Mayor Robert J. O'Connor. "We heard from many throughout the community and are glad to be able work with Republic Services to offer this one-week extension."

Leaves must be put into a 30-gallon Kraft paper yard waste bag and placed at the curb by 6 a.m. on the regular garbage pickup day. No waste sticker is needed.

The free collection applies to leaves only.

Any bags with brush and yard waste must have a waste sticker attached and cannot exceed 50 lbs. each. Brush and yard waste will also be collected through Friday, Dec. 9.
