What's the deal with the tree branches?

May have spoken to soon.  
While the first sweep is now officially "completed" here in midtown I can go a block in any direction and find piles untouched since December.
Most of the piles are too large to have been blocked just by a vehicle parked in the street, so I dont have a clue as to their 'system'.

31st and Lewis second pass was made this morning.

The second pass came down my street on Monday, 2-18.  26th street between Yale & Darlington.

I want to know what can be done about residents that don't care about their debris.  The neighbor next door to me has waist-high tree limbs all along the sides and back of his property, yet he has done nothing to move this debis to the curb for "FREE" pickup.  I have oftered to help him clear his lot, to deaf ears.  He just doesn't seem to care. Do I just have to wait and then file a code enforcement complaint to get this slob to clear his lot?

Mine (FLorence Park) are all gone as of Tuesday.  I raked and swept up all the leaves and remaining twigs, but the trash men didn't take the bundled twigs.  So now I have two relatively small bundles of twigs that I guess will have to wait until the third pass??  WE're talking SMALL bundles.  I guess the trash service must be on orders not to take any limb-like material while this is going on. [xx(]  I might sneak them into a garbage bag just to be rid of all remnants of that mess.  Just glad to be able to use my sidewalk and steps again!
