Street Sweeping Season
Street sweeping crews have started their first pass of street cleaning this week. This initial pass aims to remove the bulk of road surface debris that has built up over the winter.
Once the bulk of material removal has been completed, crews will be returning for a more thorough cleaning, which will include residential areas. Please watch for signs and posts in your neighborhood. We ask that vehicles be removed from the streets on your ‘sweep’ day, however, vehicle ticketing and towing will not be enforced.
As a reminder, please keep a safe distance from street sweeping equipment as crews work. For more information about street sweeping, contact City Hall.
