Adopt-A-Road Program
The Adopt-A-Road Program gives local volunteers a chance to help keep City roads clean and litter-free.
Individuals and groups can adopt a section of road and help with litter cleanups. The City will install a sign along the road to recognize your group for its efforts.
Program Details
Volunteer groups agree to:
- Clean up their adopted road section twice a year (once in the spring and once in the fall)
- Take part in the program for three years
- Sign a waiver before each cleanup
- Give the City at least two days' notice before each cleanup
Note: Groups must be registered before holding their first cleanup. Please allow up to 10 business days for new applications to be processed.
The City provides:
- Garbage bags for each cleanup
- Free disposal of collected waste after the spring and fall cleanups
- A recognition sign along your adopted road.
