ANN ARBOR – The City of Ann Arbor announced it is moving its regular curbside compost collection season up by one week in order to ramp up tree branch collection related to the ice storm in late February.

According to a city release, there will only be one sweep for storm-related cleanup through the city. Therefore, residents with damaged trees should place their bundles, small and large branches at the curb as soon as possible.
