Kudos to the work keep tiger town beautiful is doing I'm around airline and Sherwood at i12 and I don't even see trash


I agree. This group is amazing. I encourage everyone to follow them on social media. They clean up so many places in BR - they pick up needles, shopping carts, trash, etc. They dig out drains and clean under interstates.

They even put out trash cans that THEY empty on the reg.

But how freaking sad is it that a group of citizens who volunteer a few hours a week can make such a HUGE difference when our city just sits back and watches.

Street clean up should be a rotational job done by the city. It should be dependable and paid for by our tax dollars. It is embarrassing that our citizens are having to cover this.

As for what can be done different in BR. I don't pretend to know. But if we can't even manage our own trash, we are screwed.

We should have regular street sweeping on Interstates too.
