DOGWOOD-AZALEA NEIGHBORHOOD TO HOST CLEANUP

 

The neighborhood will also host a neighborhood cleanup from 6:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, June 20.  All residents in the cleanup areas are invited to help beautify the neighborhood by picking up litter along sidewalks and streets on their cleanup day.  The Sanitation Department will provide free curbside pickup for junk furniture, appliances and other items to its residential customers in this neighborhood alliance area.  Items must be left at the curb by Friday night prior to the day of the cleanup.  If you have items to set out, please call the City Action Line at 687-4444 or e-mail [email protected] BY THE WEDNESDAY BEFORE THE CLEANUP.  Smaller items must be bagged or boxed.  The sanitation crews CANNOT pick up construction debris/materials, yard waste, dirt, paint or any type of liquid.

 

The Alliance is also looking for new members.  They meet every other month starting in January at 5:30 p.m. at the Edge Ice Center.  The neighborhood extends from Twelfth Street to Booth Avenue, between Frederica to Lewis Lane/Roosevelt Road/Werner Avenue.
