Notice : There will not be a community clean-up day in 2017 . However , for your added convenience and to comply with DEP and to receive credit for recycling , the borough will have a roll off for yard waste located on East Willock Road opened from 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM . Any yard waste may be brought to the yard and put into the roll off . No garbage or concrete will be accepted . Yard waste consists of grass clippings , leaf waste , tree branches ( under 4 " diameter ), or any type of vegetation . No contractors . On the third week of the month the Department of Public Works will collect yard waste and it must be in brown paper bags and branches bundle / tied up to 3 feet long , not more than 4 inches in diameter . This is required for our recycling program and possible future grants . Also , you can always set out larger items at the curb every week . So there is no need to collect and hold on to items until that day . Let ’ s keep Brentwood clean year round .

Storm runoff is a hot topic because communities in the lower sections of the basins do get flooded in rain events . We are asked to slow down or store runoff if possible . A rain barrel or rain garden helps . A simple barrel connected to a downspout with a hose bib works great and water stored can be used for flower or vegetable gardens . A rain garden takes a bit more work but if you visit www . raingardennetwork . com the site will walk you through the process . Not only will you regenerate ground water you will also have a flower garden which does not need watering ( once established ). One of the criteria is to make sure it is about 10 feet from your house to keep the water from entering your basements walls .
Our sweeper will be out and about . After cleaning the roads we will be cleaning our storm inlets as required by our MS4 Permit .
