The Borough of Macungie has again contracted for leaf collection throughout the Borough during the following weeks: November 9th, November 16th, November 23rd, and November 30th. Leaf collection will occur once on each roadway during each of the four listed weeks; it may begin on a different day each week, and if not able to be completed in one day, may last for more than one day. Do not mix grass clippings, garden waste, tree or shrub trimmings with the leaves or the pile will not be picked up as these items will damage the leaf vacuum. Additionally, there is a designated area at the Borough Garage located at 301 S. Church Street where residents may place loose leaves ONLY on any day or time. (NO BAGS)

The Borough of Macungie is seeking residents interested in serving their community by volunteering for one of several important boards and commissions. We currently have vacancies on the Borough's Zoning Hearing Board, Planning Commission, Civil Service Commission, and Water Authority. These volunteer positions provide a valuable opportunity to contribute to the future of our community and help guide decisions that impact Borough residents and businesses.

Board and commission members play an important role in local government by reviewing development proposals, assisting with long-range planning, supporting public safety hiring processes, and helping oversee critical public infrastructure and services. No prior experience is required for most positions; individuals with a willingness to learn, participate, and serve the public are encouraged to apply.

Residents interested in being considered for appointment are encouraged to contact the Borough Office for additional information or to submit a letter of interest.
