Please review the included street sweeping map & schedule to join with us in providing the maximum street sweeper effectiveness in your neighborhood.

Scheduling may change due to weather conditions or unforeseen mechanical problems. For example, if the streets are too wet, sweepers cannot remove debris.

Only Water Down the Storm Drain

NPDES logoWater pollution degrades surface waters making them unsafe for drinking, fishing, swimming, and other activities. As authorized by the Clean Water Act, the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit program controls water pollution by regulating point sources that discharge pollutants into waters of the United States.

Street sweepers remove debris from our streets & prevent it from entering our storm drains. Street sweeping also helps the city comply with state and federal storm water quality requirements.
