STREET SWEEPING UPDATE
It’s not a coincidence that your street sweeping occurs on a different day than your garbage service! It is actually a coordinated effort to make sure that as much of the street is swept as possible. Beginning this month, Oakley Disposal will be switching some of the garbage collection days, and in conjunction, the City of Oakley has revised its street sweeping schedule. There may be some overlap while both of these new schedules take effect, but by the end of the month your streets should be swept on different days than your garbage is being picked up.
The City sweeps the public streets in residential neighborhoods twice a month. Depending on where you live, you may see the sweeper on the first and third or second and fourth week of the month. View your street’s new designated route at bit.ly/35ERlKl
