YARD WASTE PICKUP BEGINS

Seasonal yard waste pick-up runs from the third week in March through the second week in December each year. This program also includes recycling of food scrap materials.

The Seasonal Yard Waste Cart subscription costs for LRS are:

65-gallon cart (yard waste and food scrap materials) $128.13 per season95-gallon cart (yard waste and food scrap materials) $153.75 per season Please contact LRS to sign up for Seasonal Yard Waste cart service.

Residents may also sticker biodegradable bags or resident owned 34-gallon containers to dispose of yard waste materials. Resident owned containers must be clearly marked as yard waste and not weigh more than 50 pounds.


The Branch Pick Up program is free for all single-family homes within Lisle’s corporate limits and provides for the collection and disposal of branches from residential properties. Please note that, beginning this year, the program pickup schedule will rotate regions every season. Pickups are scheduled according to three regions (defined below) and the order in which the regions are picked up will change each season. (This is a departure from past practice of picking up regions in the same sequence every season).

The program is intended for branches that have been trimmed or damaged by weather and does not include whole trees or shrubs. See below for a schedule of pickups and program guidelines.2020 SchedulePick Up Times Week of

Program GuidelinesPlease adhere to the following guidelines:• Bundles should not exceed 3 feet tall x 3 feet wide x 5 feet long and should weigh 50 pounds or less.• Place single branches up to 8 inches in diameter and 8 feet in length separately from bundles.• Do not include vines, roots, stumps, grasses, flowers, weeds or dirt.• Tie branch piles with natural twine or rope (no nylon, plastic or metal)• Place branch piles in the parkway by 7 a.m. on the Monday of your scheduled pickup week. Once Village

crews pass area they will not return if branches are put out later in the week.• Branches should be lined up as close to the street as possible – cut ends facing the street.• Failure to follow the guidelines will result in the issuance of a Red Tag. The tag will list why the branches

were not collected, steps to take to properly prepare them, and a phone number to call and reschedule the pickup. Improperly placed branches must be addressed by the Friday of your pickup week.

VILLAGE SPRING BRANCH PICK UP PROGRAM

A Reminder to ResidentsWith the return of warmer weather, residents should use extra caution when driving in the neighborhood. Children and adults will be out biking, walking, playing catch, and exercising their pets. Please watch your speed, especially where the paths intersect the roadway. Realize that speeding through residential neighborhoods will make

very little, if any, difference in the total time it will take to complete your entire trip. It only takes a second of inattention combined with speed to cause a tragedy. Also remember, in Illinois, the law requires that motorists stop for pedestrians in a crosswalk. With your help we can keep Green Trails safe.

Like the Loch Ness monster or Bigfoot, the fabled poop fairy has been the stuff of legend. Flying undetected in parks, neighborhoods, and schoolyards, she was said to follow close behind dogs and their owners, picking up what the dog left behind before flying off to the next

canine creation. A widespread belief that she existed seemed to reassure some that cleaning up after one’s dog was optional.

In response to a growing number of poop piles, and a growing number of citizen complaints, the Green Trails Improvement Association brings you this public service announcement:

PLEASE PICK UP THE POOP!

Residential Stormwater Drainage

Over the course of this past winter several drainage issues have been identified within the GTIA common areas. Most of these issues involve residential property owners channeling drainage from their roof drains and sump pumps onto GTIA common areas. In addition to creating hazardous conditions for users of the pathways, this situation has resulted in damage to the turf and pathways.

As a rule, any drainage collected on private property is to be discharged onto that same property. GTIA, with few exceptions, disallows discharge onto the common area. The Village of Lisle has published guidelines for discharge of stormwater which are available from the VOL website.

It is the intention of the GTIA Board to begin trail inspections during March and strictly enforce the “Violations and Fines Policy” when violations are noted.

Residents are requested to check their storm water discharge points and take remedial action should they find that they are in violation of the GTIA or VOL regulations.

The Myth of the Poop Fairy


says Bryan Johnson, the recycling director in Madison. Are you taking responsibility for the products you use? Says Johnson, “People are becoming more aware that even if it’s out of your home, it’s still your responsibility.”ACCEPTABLE YARD WASTE, ORGANICS/FOOD SCRAP MATERIALS FOR LISLE LAKESHORE RECYCLINGYard waste includes grass clippings, leaves, branches and brush under two inches in diameter, other yard and garden trimmings, vines, garden plants and flowers, weeds, tree droppings (pine cones, crabapples, etc.) and other similar organic waste materials accumulated as the result of the cultivation and maintenance of lawns, shrubbery, vines, trees and gardens.Sod, dirt, Christmas, and other holiday trees, greenery from wreaths and garlands are not considered yard waste and need to be disposed of as refuse.ORGANICS/FOOD SCRAPOrganics may be mixed into the yard waste and include bread, cereal, coffee grounds, dairy, egg shells, eggs, fruits, grain, pasta, shells, and vegetables. Please do not place any items not included in that list.YARD WASTE SEASONYard waste season starts the third (3rd) full week of March through the second (2nd) full week of December, every year.LRS uses an aerobic digester system to convert organic material into compost. Not only does this digester provide a much-needed answer for organic waste diversion from landfills, it also eliminates many negative impacts found in traditional organic waste collection. By using this innovative system, dangerous methane gas will not be created, as typically found when organic waste is dumped into landfills. Also, less land is used in housing this technology in contrast to creating compost piles. Finally, there is zero water pollution and zero odor created when waste is converted into a fertilizer through the digester. All output is free of dangerous microbes and the high heat used in the digester destroys harmful bacteria that may be included in waste.The digester system creates a nutrient-rich fertilizer in a processing time of one day and can accept almost any type of organic material available.Sources: Lakeshore Recycling Systemshttps://www.lrsrecycles.com/services/organic-waste/https://www.lrsrecycles.com/residential/residential-programs/village-of-lisle/American Chemical Societyhttps://www.acs.org/content/acs/en/education/resources/highschool/chemmatters/past-issues/2017-2018/october2017/composting-your-trash-natures-treasure.html

CONSIDER ALL OF THE FOOD YOU’VE DISCARDED THIS WEEK - some apple cores, a few handfuls of vegetable peels, the cookie that you dropped on the floor, or the half sandwich that you meant to eat later. Now think about how much food waste you generate each year. It is a massive amount, especially when combined with the contributions from everyone else in your community. If you live in a mid-sized city such as Madison, Wis., for example, you could stand beside nearly 250,000 fellow citizens and gaze with dismay upon several thousand tons of rotting food waste.But sending organic waste - a chaotic jumble of yard material and discarded food - to a landfill takes up a lot of space. More troublesome, however, is that when organic waste is buried, it decomposes under oxygen-free, or anaerobic, conditions, producing gases like methane that pollute the atmosphere. The decomposition is driven by microbes that grow in the absence of oxygen.So, what’s the best way to handle the issue of disposing of food waste?ROTTING FOODOrganic waste is mostly composed of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen, with small amounts of phosphorus, sulfur, potassium, and other trace elements. When anaerobic microbes decompose the waste, energy is released and the microbes convert the waste into compounds that support their growth and reproduction. Harmful greenhouse gases, such as methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2), are generated, as well as organic acids and ammonia (NH3).Although there are natural sources of methane, human actions account for the majority of its emissions globally. Methane, which is useful for fueling items, such as power plants and kitchen stoves, is a potent greenhouse gas—even more so than CO2. Municipal solid waste landfills are the third-largest source of human related methane emissions in the United States, accounting for 15.4% of these emissions in 2015. Some of the methane produced in landfills is recovered and used to generate energy. An alternative to reducing methane emissions is to use a more efficient process called composting, which relies on microbial decomposition of organic matter.COMPOSTINGComposting is the microbial breakdown of organic material into simpler components, which are used to fertilize soil without the use of potentially harmful chemicals.The most common diversion of food waste from landfills in the United States is in municipal composting programs. Cities such as San Francisco, Calif.; Portland, Ore.; and Seattle, Wash., have implemented programs that divert organic waste from landfills. In some cities, such as Seattle, it is against the law to put food scraps in the garbage. Other cities, such as Madison, use anaerobic composting to capture methane and they use it to fuel cars, trucks, and buses.“We’re taking 13,000 tons of food waste to the landfill every year, and instead of paying to bury it, we use it to produce electricity,”

THE MORE YOU KNOW: LAKESHORE RECYCLING SYSTEMS ACCEPTS FOOD WASTE WITH YARD WASTE


Here’s the situation: people are living longer, but not always healthier and therefore may need more assistance as they age. At the same time, family members are often stretched too thin to provide all

the help someone living with a chronic condition may require.So, if more people need more care and in-home care is not covered under traditional health insurance, how can it be paid for so that people can be helped? The help needed is often non-medical home health care such as transportation, meal preparation, respite for family caregivers and other activities of daily living.MedicaidMillions of people rely on Medicaid, which is a federal and state program that provides access to healthcare resources for people who qualify based on their income level. People of all ages (not just those over age 65) can qualify for Medicaid.The opportunity to use Medicaid to pay for in-home care will depend first on meeting the qualifications and then the state in which the person needing care resides. The National Care Planning Council provides some information on this method of payment by state on their website. However, Medicaid is not traditionally a reliable method of paying for in-home care services which can help people with their activities of daily living such as safely grooming and bathing, meal preparation, running errands and the like.MedicareThe ability to use Medicare to pay for in-home care services

is evolving. Medicare is the federal health insurance program for people who are over age 65 (as well as some people who are younger living with certain disabilities) and it has three parts: A, B, D, as well as Medicare Advantage (sometimes called Part C, or the “all in one”). Each part covers specific services such as hospital stays and prescription drugs.According to the Department of Health & Human Services, “Medicare Advantage Plans, sometimes called “Part C” or “MA Plans,” are offered by private companies approved by Medicare. Medicare pays these companies to cover your Medicare benefits.”As of 2019, a small percentage of Medicare Advantage plans will offer non-medical in-home care support services. Given recent legislation designed to offer more benefits to individuals living with chronic conditions such as heart disease and COPD, experts anticipate the number of plans that will cover these costs to expand over the coming years, but there are no specifics available.Availability of expanded services covered under Medicare Advantage plans will depend on the state and county and also the insurance provider. Insurance plans may require documentation of medical need to cover things such a set number of hours of “personal care” or transportation for a set number of trips to a health-related appointment.While the complexity of these plans can be overwhelming and even off-putting, the good news here is that these government payor sources are increasingly recognizing the need for non-medical home services and finding ways for people to access them and pay for them.If you have any questions or need help with resources, please contact us at 331-702-9975.

• A permit must be obtained through the Village of Lisle for patio and fence installations. Please refer to the Deed Restrictions within your area.

• Sump pump drainage hose must be setback a minimum of 6 feet from your property line and not discharged into the common area. A sump pump hose found in the common area may result in a fine for the homeowner.

• Please keep all pets on a leash.• Please remove pet waste from all common areas.• Please make sure toys and bikes are not left in the common

areas overnight.• Prune trees and shrubs located on your property near the trails

to ensure resident safety.• Maintain the area behind your fence.• Report any trail lights out, the

identification number is located on the light pole. To report GTIA lights, call 630-210-8353. Lisle Park District (LPD) lights can be reported to 630-964-3410.

• Please do not place yard waste debris in the common areas or along the Parkway. The Village of Lisle will not pickup yard waste, nor will the Association. Yard waste pickup is available every Wednesday, beginning March 20th, at curbside with the appropriate sticker.

• Just a reminder that refuse containers need to be placed and removed from the street according to Village of Lisle Code. Preferably, the containers are stored so as not to be visible from the street on non garbage pick-up days.

Please be a Good Neighbor!
