Lets get Highlandtown a Street Sweeper!

Lets get Highlandtown Clean Again!

Tired of seeing trash all over the street directly in front of your house? Worn-out from being the only person that cleans your street religously? Upset that nothing is being done? Well your not the only one!

The majority of us that live, work, and play here in Highlandtown are very respectful of our surroundings, and make sure that our garbage makes it into a trash can. We want our blocks to be as free of trash and debri as Charles Village, Baltimore Street directly north of the Park, and Fells Point.

I feel as though those of us that care, are doing everything that we can do, and are now in need of assistance from the city. One person on a block picking up trash everyday can only do so much, we need the strength and speediness of a street sweeper or something similar.

While we dont know where this street sweeper will come from yet (City of Baltimore, Private donations, or grant funds), we need to at least begin to voice our opinion to Cleaner Greener Baltimore, The Mayor's Office, Councilman Kraft, and the Highlandtown Community Association.

Please, please, please, if you are tired of seeing the streets of Highlandtown littered with trash sign this petition, and help us change this neghborhood for the better. I will be presenting this information at the Highlandtown Community Association Meeting April 22.

Also, if you know of someone that doesnt have the internet that would like to sign a petition, email me at kbernhard@usa.com with their name and address and I will take a paper copy to them.

Thanks for your time, and I believe if we all unite as one, we can make Highlandtown the best neighborhood in Baltimore City!
