Be on the lookout throughout the City for our unsung hero....Our "new to us" Street Sweeper is out actively cleaning the streets of leaves, debris, and trash.
Street sweepers provide a significant environmental benefit by helping prevent debris from entering stormwater systems and eventually discharging into our local waterways. Our sweeper also provides special event cleanup after parades and other largescale events.
Next time you see 'em out, make sure to give a little wave to let 'em know that you appreciate their efforts.
