Operation Brightside Schedules Mini-Blitz ’82

Historical October 1982 report or notice. Original dates, prices and contacts describe the source period; current availability has not been established.

Saturday, Oct. 2, has been designated as the date for the Skinker-DeBaliviere neighborhood’s alley sweep or Mini-Blitz ’82. Plastic trash bags will be available from block leaders and from the Council office at 6008 Kingsbury. Trash bags should be placed in the one-man trash containers and a special pick-up will be made on Saturday. Any bulk items should be placed at least four feet away from the containers on the alley line and will be picked up during the following week.

If you are unable to participate in the Oct. 2 alley sweep, if you got the word about it too late, if you will be out of town or your mother-in-law is coming that day, please try to participate in the general spirit of cleaning up before the bad weather hits.

All of the leaves will not have fallen by then, but with a bit of effort on everyone’s part before the snow falls, we may be able to prevent some of the annual problems of clogged sewers and gutters which add to the chore of snow removal and water drainage.
