Street Sweeping Continues…

Click here to review sweeping zone map.
Please have all vehicles off the streets when the sweeper is in your neighborhood.
Street sweeping is one of the most cost-effective ways used to remove sediment, metals, petroleum products, trash, and vegetation that accumulates on streets, construction sites and parking lots. If these toxins are not removed, they will make their way into the storm drains and into our streams and waterways. Keeping the storm drains clear not only helps to mitigate water pollution, but also reduces the likelihood of flooding during heavy rain.
