The city has extended the number of days that its branch drop-off site, located in the parking lot at the north end of the War Memorial Rose Garden at 5804 South Bemis Street, will be open:

• Friday, May 27 until 6 p.m.
• Tuesday, May 31, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
• Wednesday, June 1, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

The collection site will close permanently after Wednesday. This collection site is for broken tree branches only. No other yard waste will be accepted. Do not leave bags or other trash when dropping off tree debris.

Many Littleton residents are coordinating the cleanup with their neighbors who might need assistance. Once the debris collection ends, the city will grind the branches into free mulch for residents.
