LETTER TO COMMISSION
November 21, 2000
TO: Mayor Neisen O. Kasdin and
Members of the City Commission
FROM: Jorge M. Gonzalez
City Manager
SUBJECT: SOUTH BEACH CLEANUP
In preparation for this year's holiday season, the Administration will undertake "clean sweep", a
cooperative effort to give high visibility areas in the City an improved and cleaner look.
On Saturday, December 2, 2000, the clean sweep team will clean Collins Avenue from 5th Street
to 461h Street. Special attention will be paid to pressure-cleaning sidewalks, removing graffiti,
painting curbs, improving landscaping and much more. The following departments will be
participating in the cleanup: Parks & Recreation, Public Works, Property Management, Sanitation,
Parking and Code Compliance, in addition to the Community Resource Team. We anticipate that
approximately sixty (60) City employees will participate. The clean sweep team will be easily
identifiable by their T~shirts.
Private property owners have also been notified of this initiative and are encouraged to participate
by cleaning awnings, planting flowers, touching up paint and generally improving the appearance
of their properties.
We encourage your attendance and participation. For additional information, please contact either
me or Assistant City Manager, Matthew Schwartz at (305) 673-7010.
