Crews are working today to continue finishing garbage collection from Friday's pickup. Residents are advised to leave their totes out until they are picked up. The maps below from Friday's garbage are scheduled for Monday pickup.

Due to the continuing storm cleanup, DPW anticipates that some garbage pickup runs for the week of 1/24 may extend to the next day. Residents are advised to put their totes out on their scheduled day and leave them out until they are picked up. 311 Call and Resolution Center
So Congress St was finally plowed but there’s no way for any cars to park on the left side of the street and they need to tomorrow(Thursday) due to alternate parking. What are your plans to fix this?
What is the plan for today's garage collection? It's 3:30 and no plows or pickup?
Where are the Plows for side streets in Riverside Black Rock Area
I am curious to know what's being done to combat bullying in schools. Within the individual schools nothing seems to be done. Kids are being beaten on and no recourse against the bully even when it's presented to principals and vice principals .. This is a tragedy that must be stopped.
There is a sinkhole near the curb in front of 67 Ross Ave. near Ontario st. It has been reported twice in the past. It's large enough to cause leg injury if stepped in.
Thanks for nothing. Love having a heavy truck parked on brand new asphalt blocking the entire street. Made my day.
Tell them to move the god damn truck out of the center of the street.
People on Silverdale have jobs. Really fed up with the city.
This is a joke.
Do you hate Silverdale? Once again contractor's are blocking access in the street but doing nothing. All they needed to do was park their truck properly.
Once again Silverdale place in south buffalo was missed for recycling pickup.

Garbage was done.
