$1 million South LA cleanup program aims to end 'war on trash,' includes 200 new garbage cans

Los Angeles Council Districts Banded Together to Attend to the Region's Needs From Sweeping Alleys to Creating Jobs

February 22 2016

South L.A. is getting a comprehensive plan to clean up including new garbage cans, community involvement and an education program that Los Angeles City Councilman Curren Price said that he hopes will end "the war on trash."

Price, who represents the 9th District, announced the details of the $1 million initiative at a "Clean and Green" kickoff event Monday at Maple Primary Center, according to a press release.

“We’re doing more than just picking up stuff,” Price told KPCC. “We’re also trying to educate and inform.”

The initiative partners the City Council with L.A. Sanitation and the Coalition for Responsible Community Development (CRCD) to clean and maintain trash-free streets.

Price announced that $300,000 would be allocated to sanitation for additional crews to focus on the 9th District. Another $370,000 will be allocated to the CRCD to help with pick-ups of bulky items like mattresses and furniture that often sit on streets.

The remaining $400,000 in the initiative budget will go toward placing more than 200 trash cans in the 9th District, which includes South L.A. and the western part of downtown.

The "Clean and Green" initiative also includes an education and public service announcement component, Price said. Billboards in both English and Spanish will appear in the city. Price said that there will also be information for schools to pass along to children about keeping the city clean.

"If we are to clear our neighborhoods of mounds of trash, we will need the ongoing cooperation of our neighbors to maintain them in a state of cleanliness,” Price said in a press release.

Price's office holds a monthly community cleanup with local schools. On Feb. 20, Price's office, along with Dolores Huerta Elementary School, cleaned 20 blocks around the school,
according to Price's Facebook.

COMING SOON... AFTER THE HORDES FROM SOUTH OF THE BORDER MOVE TO YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD.

When Mexicans move into your neighborhood, this is what to expect. For some reason, Mexicans dump their trash on the sidewalk, especially large items like furniture/mattresses/etc.

These photos were taken in the Pico-Union section of Los Angeles. This area was once an upwardly mobile, even wealthy
all-White neighborhood through the late 1940's (homes were built between 1890 - 1910). Sometime after WWII,
Pico-Union gradually became rundown. In the late 1970's, Mexicans started moving in, and of course, as per usual
with such "people," Pico-Union has become a gang infested, filth-ridden, graffiti scrawled slum/barrio.

There is just nothing as disgusting as seeing this crap in photos. These people have no respect for our country. People who do this are scum bags. Good job to the Americans who cleaned up the pig stys and shame on LA for not having uniform trash pick-up throughout their city.

Lost Angeles. So sad.

Sooooo glad I left when I did.....

They trash our beautiful border and deserts too.

Trump...forget the "have heart" baloney. Get them all out of here!

This is what they do to our neighborhoods, State and National Parks and our local parks. I have seen the graffiti they carve in the trees in Yosemite and the trash they leave on the shores of the waterfalls. Get them out.

They line up at our State Park down the road at 5am waiting for it to open...then defecate in the sand traps on the beautiful golf course here. This is NOT who we are as a Country and they must be deported.

I saw an article that they are now trashing the US-Canada border.

Strollers, trash, bags, food wrappers, cell phones, clothes strewn along the route. Just like they do to our Southern Border.

Canada says they will take them, but the citizens do not want them either!

We must ALL stop this illegal migration now. Stop the FAILED refugee, asylum and illegal invasion of our countries for the next 20 years.

Canada will be crying "Uncle" next. Overloaded with the burden of costs and overcrowding just like we are.

Funny thing...they think it is OK to dump these people on the USA...but no one else wants them either.

DEPORT THEM ALL BACK AND STOP MORE FROM COMING!
