Attention Residents: Notice from Waste Management about Service
Dear Valued Waste Management Customers,
Because of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, Federal and State Declarations of Emergency have been issued that recommend non-essential employees shelter in place and/or work from home when possible to promote social distancing. As a result, Waste Management has significantly reduced its “field” work force and is focusing on the performance of essential services during this unprecedented emergency. Because of its importance to the health and safety of our society, municipal solid waste collection and disposal is deemed an “essential service” in most instances, and so Waste Management’s employees dedicated to collecting and disposing of trash are in the field continuing to perform this critical function.
In order for Waste Management to maintain its focus on municipal solid waste collection and disposal, and due to the reduced number of employees in the field, effective Wednesday, March 25, 2020, Waste Management is temporarily suspending the performance of the following services, which are non-essential during this period of emergency:
- Bulk Collection – furniture, carpet, mattresses, appliances, etc.
- Spring and bulk clean-ups
- Yard Waste Collection – grass clippings, brush, tree limbs, etc.
Please Note:
- All trash/refuse must be bagged & sealed (and wherever possible) placed in containers. LOOSE ITEMS WILL NOT BE COLLECTED.
- All recyclable materials must be placed inside recycling bin (including cardboard). ITEMS LEFT OUTSIDE OF BIN, WILL NOT BE COLLECTED.
- WM will enforce (bag and/or cart limits), as reflected in our current contract.
When the Declarations of Emergency and social distancing recommendations have been eased and Waste Management’s work force returns to pre-pandemic levels, these services will be restarted. Waste Management will provide notice when the service(s) will resume.
We have been a part of this community for many years and know that together we will be resilient. Thank you for your partnership during this critical time.
COVID-19 Coronavirus
Dear Leet Township Residents:
After Governor Wolf’s emergency disaster declaration on March 6, 2020; the current information from the Allegheny County Health Department that there are multiple confirmed cases of the COVID-19 in Allegheny County; information from the Center for Disease Control and the closure of the Quaker Valley School District [as well as state mandated closures for PA] – the Leet Township Board of Commissioners have opted to temporarily reduce Township non-essential operations and services as a precautionary measure to ensure the safety and health of our valued employees, the public, as well as those who visit our Township building to conduct necessary business.
Our Police and Fire Departments will continue to provide the excellent services they are known for.
Additional information will be sent out regarding Township hours, emergency contacts and any other business including tax drop offs, permits, complaints or general requests.
We know and understand that a brief interruption will not kill the virus, however it does need an interrupted period of time to slow transmission. The additional concern is for our health care workers and hospitals; if we can slow down the spread of COVID-19 our resources will hopefully not be stretched to the absolute limit.
The Leet Township Commissioners are big proponents of neighbors helping neighbors. If you know of someone in dire need of help, please reach out to us. We will try our best to find a solution without compromising anyone’s health and safety during the process. If you belong to a church or any type of religious organization, this might be another avenue of help. We need to work together and help one another.
