John Cufari, Superintendent of the Department of Public Works (DPW), supervises a five person crew and manages the maintenance and repair of the Village’s infrastructure. Some of the DPW’s daily responsibilities include collecting brush and yard debris, monitoring the Village’s storm water and sanitary sewer systems, maintaining public grounds and sidewalks, pruning village trees, and plowing and sweeping streets and sidewalks.

PLEASE NOTE NEW CHANGES EFFECTIVE 11/2007: We are eliminating the use of bags for yard debris. Scheduled collection of brush and containers ends the last Monday in October. After that date, we will pick up debris when time is available. This gives us all of our time to pick up leaves and to do snow removal if need be. Thank you for your cooperation in advance.

Please Help Our Busy DPW Crew By Following These Mandates.

• Place grass, weeds, flower clippings, apples, nuts, and other small debris in biodegradable paper bags or reusable rubbish containers. When full, these containers should not weigh more than 50 pounds.
• Whenever possible, compost!
• During the Fall Months, leaves may be piled by the curb. Leaf pick-pick up will continue as long as weather permits.
• If you have branches and other yard debris, make sure they do not exceed 6 feet in length. Brush will picked up whenever possible between Nov. 1 - March 31. (Remember: Snow and ice removal is a first priority for Village crews and equipment during the Winter months.)
• Large trees and other debris gathered by a private contractor are to be taken directly to the town of Pittsford Highway Garage on Golf Avenue by the contractor.
• Items such as water tanks, stoves, furniture, building materials, etc., will not be picked up the Village crew. Your private waste hauler can help you dispose of these items. If for some reason waste material can't be picked up, a note will be left explaining why.

If you have questions, please call the DPW at 586-9320 or the Village Office at 586-4332.

Winter Plowing!

Just a little reminder from the Superintendent to be mindful of the parking restrictions as specified in the Village of Pittsford Code. See the code for further explanation.
