Some helpful information regarding the 2007 Street Sweeping Program
Become aware of when your area will be cleaned. Check the schedule it will appear in the Troy Record every Saturday or check out the full 9 weeks schedule on the web at www.troyny.gov Most importantly, please move your cars so that the street sweeper and DPW staff can properly clean your street.
Sweep or wash your sidewalks and rake your lawns before the sweepers come onto your street and, also sweep the dirt in the curbs and gutters into small piles to help facilitate easy pickup.
This Program is not for Bulk Trash pickup. Bulk trash pickup is a year long program.
Uncooperative car owners will have their vehicles towed at the owner’s expense (approx. $100.00). All streets will be posted for “No Parking” as required. Please notify DPW (274-4579) in advance if you know of any abandoned, unregistered or inoperative vehicles.
Please take a few moments to clean your alley or back yard and cut down any weeds or brush. Please place the material in a biodegradable bag or bundle the brush to facilitate collection.
Regular refuse collection will be done on a daily basis.
In conclusion, we need everyone’s cooperation in making this year’s Street Sweeping Program the most successful yet! You can also view the entire Street Sweeping schedule at www.troyny.gov or you may call the Department of Public Works at 274-4579 should you have any questions about the program.
Thank you for your cooperation.
