An Invitation from Paul Koretz to Help Keep the Westside Clean

[Orli Belman]

Councilmember Paul Koretz would like to invite you to his first Westside Community Leaders Educating and Assisting Neighborhoods (C.L.E.A.N.) Training. The C.L.E.A.N. Team is designed to help stakeholders and residents with the identification and documentation of common quality of life problems in their communities such as, illegal signs, illegal dumping, trash can violations and other illegal uses of the Public Right of Way. Koretz reports that a similar event in the Valley was a great success. The training is conducted by an Officer for the Department of Public Works, Bureau of Street Services, Street Investigation and Enforcement Division.

Training will be held  on Thursday, January 24, 2013 at Cheviot Hills Park from 6:30pm - 9:00pm.

When build out along the Metro rail line is completed with thousands of new apartment units, there will be a need for this. Add all of the train trips from other parts of town and WLA could have a major trash problem. Where was our council when this plan was put through? They were going along to get along. Our town has been sold out folks. The same scenario is being repeated all over the country with people being packed like sardines into massive apartment complexes along transit lines. Quality of life? forget it. Google ICLEI and Agenda 21 to see where this is all going.
