The City’s Public Works Department announced their new “Adopt-A-Streetscape” program. In the press release that accompanied the announcement, the City noted:
The City of Boulder City maintains 92 miles of public roads – that includes both sides of the street and the medians as well. Our Streets and Landscape crews do an exceptional job at maintenance and upkeep. The reality is that sometimes, it is hard to keep up that pristine appearance. Sadly, some people litter. Weeds grow quickly and wind can cause garbage and debris to fly away.
Community organizations, civic groups and individuals can now “Adopt-A-Streetscape” to beautify streets in our great city. Working with our Department of Public Works, groups can apply for a permit to work on maintaining a streetscape four times a year at their convenience. This could be a great opportunity for companies, social organizations, churches and others to accomplish worthwhile tasks that keep our streets looking great.
To participate in the program, individuals must be 18 years old or older. Participants must be 18 years old or older. Safety equipment like OSHA approved reflective vests must be worn and volunteers will stay a reasonable and safe distance from passing traffic at all times. The City will provide up to twenty reflective vests, bags for trash removal, and will send a crew to collect the trash bags when cleanup is complete or on the next business day.
Groups adopting a streetscape will have signage installed by the Public Works Department in the area to recognize their efforts! To download and complete an application, click HERE. Areas are available on a first come, first serve basis.
