Summer Clean Sweep cancelled due to heat advisory

Coordinator Emily Draffen has cancelled the Summer Clean Sweep cleanup project scheduled for Saturday.

The cancellation came because the city is under a heat advisory that is possibly going to be upgraded to a warning.

Draffen said the event will be rescheduled for later in the fall with a date to be announced.

This is the first time a city-wide cleanup has been scheduled on a quarterly basis; it has been done annually as part of the Keep America Beautiful program in the past.
