The City of West Hollywood will host three Community Clean-Up events in various locations within the City in April and May 2022. The events will give West Hollywood residents, business owners, community members, and volunteers an opportunity to help beautify the West Hollywood community while engaging with neighbors, local business owners, and West Hollywood City Council members and City staff.

Volunteers will be provided with cleaning supplies (such as gloves, trash pickers, bags, etc.), water, and snacks. Volunteers will be asked to fan out across the designated area to pick up litter in streets, alleyways, parks, parkways, and other public places. Participants will also be notified to take note of any other community beautification needs that should be reported to City staff, such as graffiti, bulky items, or other issues. Residents, businesses, neighborhood-watch groups, Advisory Boards and Commissions, and other community members are all encouraged to participate. Block by Block Security Ambassadors and some City staff members will also participate and will be available to respond to questions from community members.
People of all ages are welcome to participate, but children under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Participants must adhere to any City-required COVID-19 safety protocols that may be in place at the time of the event (such as social distancing or wearing a mask).

Was this an April Fools joke?
I think this is great!
Just once – once – I would like to see positive comments.
You people need to find some happiness…somewhere.
You are a cheerleader for anything the city does!
Stop trying to defund the sheriff’s department.
How about YOU stop posting irrelevant things on stories?
Stopping crime is more important than a virtue signaling clean-up day.
Newsflash: Crime will happen whether there are 90 LASD or 900 stationed in West Hollywood.
I’m sure Urth Caffe would appreciated the bump in business though!
Is this an invitation for residents to become volunteer slaves responsible for cleaning up neighborhoods that ordinary would be the responsibility of property owners with related violations issued by code compliance and/or areas where a normal city would assume responsibility for cleanliness?
No, it is an invitation for citizens to clean up their neighborhoods.
You must be an Erickson supporter.
Many cities, towns and communities have neighborhood beautification plans, projects and contests which keep residents regularly in tune with the quality of their surroundings. That would work in Weho instead of weekend trash picking jaunts that have no longevity.
Maybe the illustrious Counciltwits will be there picking up all the homeless feces. Yea right, not in this lifetime.
Stop wasting our tax dollars….and you’ll have tons of money to clean up the city. $85K to paint a sidewalk is outrageous.
Could not agree more. People do not need tacky rainbow paintings to recognize respect for all folks. The expense is unjustified.
