Village of Maple Park

This is a reminder for the upcoming snow event. To assist the Village’s Public Works department, we would like to remind you that residents may not park on or along any Village street during snowfalls of two inches or more until snow removal is complete. Violators will be ticketed and or towed. With your cooperation this will help them in getting the roads cleared as quickly as possible. Thank You!

Not sure what to do with that unwanted Christmas Tree?  Residents may set out one Christmas tree to be collected on the normal trash pickup day during the first two weeks of January.  Christmas trees must be clean (e.g., no ornaments, lights or tinsel), unbagged and under 6 feet in length (or cut into 2 pieces, each under 6 feet in length, if tree is greater than 6 feet tall).

Dear Residents,

It is this time of the year again. The leaves are covering our yards, curbs and streets. The good news is that  we are expecting good weather this weekend. President Fahnestock and staff are asking all residents to please remember to collect the leaves off the curbs and streets when you are clearing your yards of leaves. Please help the Village keep our storm water clear of leaves and working properly this fall and winter. From President Fahnestock and staff happy Veterans Day and God bless our troops everywhere!

Leaves that are in storm drains can cause problems for your house and many others.  Make sure to keep storm drains and streets clear of leaves.  If leaves remain in the storm drains, this can cause street or potentially home flooding.  This could also cause hydro-planing while driving.

Waste Management will be picking up yard waste through November 29th.  All yard waste must be placed at the curb for collection no later than 7:00 a.m. on your scheduled waste pickup day for collection.  Yard waste must be in biodegradable Kraft paper bags or rigid sided containers with handles specifically labeled “Yard Waste”.  The containers cannot exceed 32-gallons in size and 50 pounds.  Twigs and branches can be bundled with biodegradable twine or string in four foot long by two foot diameter bundles, tied and left at the curb for pick-up.  Branches must be less than three inches in diameter.
