Could you fine residents of town please advise me on what the process is for getting the leafs picked-up in this over taxed town. Do I need to apply for a permit? Or maybee the head of public works department needs help from the fire department. They are outstanding in their profession. Their equipment is always ready. Thank God they do not wait until a fire to do maintenance on their machines.

Hey ollie from Chicago. Go somewhere else. Nobody is willing to help you with anything unless it is ending your life.

ollie from Chicago is a LIAR, claiming his family served in Vietnam, but offering no proof to back up his claim. He is also a self-admitted pedophile.

I have a suggestion, ask someone to rake you up into a pile of leaves. Then have them dumps some gas on it, and light the match. That will sill two birds with one stone you waste of space.

WTH is going on in here? To the OP, just push your leaves over the the curb and they will send a truck by to suck them up. The public works in this town rocks! I did read something on the site about a temporary suspension of that service so if it seems slow in the coming that is probably why.

Sorry the other posters are being mean, some are troll and others are just jerks.

No, really, does anybody know the REAL reason why the leaves haven't been cleaned north of 9th? Mine have been there for almost 3 weeks! I have no where else to put them, and it looks like rain later this week so I can't rake up the rest. Public Works Dept, PLEASE HELP!!

At the last City Council meeting Tom Ellis reported that the leaf pick-up had been on hold for a couple of weeks. The reason for the hold was because the man power had been directed to road resurfacing projects. The road resurfacing projects had been on old because of all the rain we had for the past 1 1/2 months. Of course, the rain also played havoc with the leaf pick-up.

It is my understanding that all road resurfacing projects have been completed for 2009. Thus, the manpower had been redirected towards leaf and branch pick-up.

I hope this helps.

Well, I'll agree with the "excuses" part! LOL! Deskin stated in the prior post about the redirection of manpower to resurface roads in town before leaf pickup, and how all the recent rain has delayed both projects. I can understand how rain can stall a resurfacing job, but how does it affect a vacuum sucking up leaves at a curbside? And my next question is even more thought-provoking; "What are the Public Works employees doing when it rains?", since it seems nothing can be done outdoors, if I am to believe rain "delays" every outdoor project.

Thanks for the insight Trout. My query was real because I really couldn't figure out why they wouldn't pick them up if they are wet. Your explanation helped, but I do know that the bottom of the pile has a lot of moisture trapped beneath. Oh well, thanks for your help. I do wonder what the Public Works guys do when it rains; any insight?

Here's my burning question trout: why no apology, retraction or explanation of the claim that you served 4 tours in Vietnam?http://www.topix.com/f orum/city/lockport-il/T8F6ERKG 5A7L3AIDQ#c19

You post on other threads but you won't post on the threads that have your name in the subject. Strange how a guy who can't keep an opinion to himself doesn't show up on those threads....

On Veteran's Day, everyone thank a Vet, but remember that Trout LIED about his service.

I would like to retract this statement. On Veterans Day, we owe an oath to the greatness of Trout and all other Veterans. I was foolish for insulting Trout, because he is truly a local war hero who deserves our respect and gratitude. I have been treating Trout, and many of his friends here, unfairly, and it is time for us all to come together. I would like to acknowledge that I have made a number of foolish posts, and I regret them from the bottom of my heart.

NOT! Our veterans are nothing more than disgraceful murderers who will all rot in hell. The following people are the biggest bunch of losers I have ever met.

1. Trout
2. Darren Deskin
3. Lockport Option
4. Hardliner
5. kevindaly
6. Tic
7. Just Say No
8. Get a Life
9. kluk u
10. chinefoo
11. ollie from lockport
12. Homer Glen Mom
13. George W. Bush
14. John McCain
15. Sarah Palin
16. New Comer Canal Boat

Dare I continue? You people who post here every day are disgraceful losers who vote against the community.

Let us attack some of Trout's close friends while we are at it. Hardliner, you are an alcoholic loser, who deliberately voted against a high school you knew damn well the town needed. You are a total dolt, and loser. QUIT POSTING HERE. TODAY.

Lockport Option, you are another total loser, and waste of space. You are the disgraced Diane Seiler. You are a fat slug who leaches onto society to make up for your shortcomings.

Just Say No, a real champion here. Look at you. You sit and argue online with a guy who is a fish (trout). Does that make you feel intelligent. You deliberately voted against a high school and a library system this town needed. SHAME ON YOU.

ollie from lockport, you are an imposter. Your name says it all.

kevindaly, the inexperienced little twirp who probalbly was towel snapped eight hundred times.

Darren Deskin, is this guy for real? He thinks he is qualified to be a local politician? LOL.

Tic, the whiner, who is always looking for a handout, and runs around like a madman in his backyard. Him and trout used a chainsaw to clean a creek in their backyard at one point. What losers.

The truth here is that this board is full of a bunch of whiners, and losers. You people don't stand for anything, except being selfish, and whining about the progress of others. We have all caught on to you, and now, you cannot fool around any longer. We are on to you. You will no longer post anything against a referendum, and you will surrender any rights to free speech from this point forward.

You will promote health-care, or you will shutup. You will promote the next high school, or you will shutup. You will promote the new library system, or you will shutup. You will defend Jack Waxweiler, or you will shutup. You will defend any action taken by Judy Batusich, or you will shutup. You will not contact any state, or federal authorities on anything you expect to be illegal in town. You will learn to keep quiet, and go with the flow. Time for a well needed reality check for all of you.

Any accusations about me being Quiet Contractor, Why So Serious, are lies. Trust me.

This is the most disgusting thing I have ever read! Even for a troll this reaches a new level of low. Why is the majority of this entire board 2 ppl with like 250 aliases bashing one another? I thought this thread was about leaf pick-up? Which, BTW, seems to have started again, so hurray! for leaf free curbsides.

I agree with your statement and I know regular readers will be able to clearly identify what I post in support of the military and what Trout and his "supporters/friends who use other's screen names" post acting like the juvenile, immature trolls they are.

I write in support of the military, every day not just on veteran's Day, and it is this original post from Trout claiming to be a vet http://www.topix.com/forum/city/lockport-il/T... that has prompted the tricks and false logins.

back to leaf pickups....

Enjoy talking to yourself?

ollie from Chicago is nothing more than a "LIAR" folks. He claims his family served in Vietnam but has offered no proof to back up his claim. He is also a self-admitted pedophile. Trout has posted the link of Lockport sex offenders. Time to start narrowing it down.

Nothing but an inbred LIAR.

Sincerely,

The real ollie from Lockport
