Where do they take the leaves and what does Chapel Hill do with them?

How does Chapel Hill dispose of the leaves that it collects from gutters, as it is doing in Southern Village this morning? Are they composted? Reused how?

This is an easy one. Googling Chapel Hill leaf collection gets you to http://www.townofchapelhill.org/index.asp?nid=389, which begins:

From mid-October through mid-February, the Town of Chapel Hill will collect and haul away all leaves raked to the curb in piles. The Town also will deliver leaves to those requesting them for compost or mulch for gardening. This program keeps leaves out of the landfill, and we all benefit by saving landfill space and making use of a valuable material.
