The Village of Greendale is saddened to share the passing of former Village President Bernard “Bernie” Schroedl, who passed away on October 7, 2026, at the age of 87.

Bernie dedicated 18 years to serving the Greendale community, first as a Village Trustee from 1980 to 1984 and then as Village President from 1984 to 1998. Beyond his public service, Bernie was a proud U.S. Navy veteran, a member of the Greendale American Legion Post, and a longtime local business owner.

We are grateful for Bernie's leadership, dedication, and the lasting contributions he made to our community.

On behalf of the Village of Greendale, we extend our heartfelt condolences to the Schroedl family, friends, and all who knew him.

The Village of Greendale's Department of Public Works will begin curbside leaf collection on Monday, October 12!

This year, each section of the Village will receive three scheduled collections between October 12 and November 20. Collections will take place on your section's regular curbside recycling collection day.

Please note: Scheduled collections are weather-dependent. If significant snowfall requires the Village to begin snowplowing operations, one or more remaining leaf collections may be canceled.

A few important reminders:

• Leaf piles may include leaves, grass clippings and small vegetation. No woody materials are allowed.

• Place leaf piles 12 inches from the curbline to help keep gutters clear for stormwater drainage.

• If crews collect leaves ahead of schedule, they will still return on your scheduled collection day.

• November 20 is the final scheduled collection date. No additional pickups will take place after this date as crews prepare for winter operations.
