CLEAN-UP

April 1971

An area – wide clean – up is scheduled in May if the SDCC has enough volunteers to launch the campaign. Flyers announcing the clean – up will be distributed Do not set out items to be picked up until you receive a flyer.

To insure the success of the operation, volunteers are needed to man the trucks both as drivers and loaders. An operator’s license for a large vehicle is required of the truck driver. People wishing to volunteer services should contact the Council office, 6008 Kingsbury, phone 862-5122.

According to Council Director Cal Stuart if truck drivers are not available for the clean up, attempts will be made to arrange for a clean up manned by city sanitation employees at a later date. If such a change is necessary, residents will be notified in advance by leaflets distributed door to door.

On Monday, May 7, the alleys will be swept by the department’s regular street sweeping equipment.
