Sweep Away the Winter Doldrums
BALTIMORE, MD —Winter is half over! Get ready to tackle some spring cleaning in Baltimore neighborhoods by signing up for Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake’s Spring Cleanup.
The Mayor’s Spring Cleanup is April 25, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Communities can sign up to participate in the Spring Cleanup starting Friday, February 13 by calling 311. To participate, community associations should organize now and provide their cleanup location(s), planned activities, and anticipated numbers of participants when calling 311.
This is the 16th annual spring cleaning event, and it continues to grow in popularity, with neighborhoods in every part of the City sweeping, raking, planting and painting.
Residents and property owners have an added incentive to get their communities clean now that the Stormwater Fee is in effect. One way to receive credits to reduce this fee is to participate in organized cleanups such as the Mayor’s Annual Cleanups. Information on how to obtain Stormwater Fee credits will be provided to communities when they call 311 to register for the Spring Cleanup.
