1. How does the Town's Street Sweeping Program work?

Each street is scheduled for sweeping four times a year. Each home is included in one of the eighteen sweeping zones and generally, the sweeps occur in early Spring, Summer and Fall.

Circled numbers on the Trash and Recycling Calendar correspond to Sweep Zones in the program. If a sweep day is missed for any reason, the makeup day is usually the Friday of that week.

There are two scheduled street sweeps for the Spring season, usually the first in April and the second in May.

2. How often is storm or tree debris picked up?

If a public or town tree was damaged due to a storm, the Town's tree crew will remove that tree. The Town is responsible for picking up Town property storm debris only and not private trees or storm debris.

All calls regarding damaged trees should be directed to Citizen Services, (631) 957-TOWN (8696). The Town's Department of Public Works will determine if it is a removal, trim, or if no action is needed.

3. Who maintains Town beaches?
