Program
The City Public Works Department begins street sweeping around April 1st of every year, weather permitting. The City currently has two high-efficiency vacuum sweepers that sweep almost the entire City in one week. However, this varies in spring and fall when there is a larger amount of material (sand and leaves) in the street.
The City removes over 3,000 cubic yards of street sweepings from our streets each year. Help us reduce this amount and help keep our waterways clean by keeping all yard waste and other debris out of the street.
Street Sweeping Parking Ban
In April 2009, the Common Council adopted parking restrictions for street sweeping (10.1015) in an effort to comply with the City's Municipal Storm Water Discharge Permit.
The parking restrictions are in effect each year from April 1st through September 30th between the hours of 3:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m. in the designated districts. Street sweeping will continue through the end of leaf pickup, weather permitting, although the parking ban changes on October 1st for leaf pickup. See the
Brush & Leaf Pickup page for additional information.
To find out the street sweeping day for your address, see the
district map.
