‘Street Sweeping for Cleaner Roads and Creeks’: City of Arcata
The City of Arcata is asking residents to help keep streets and gutters clear for the street sweeper. The fall and winter seasons bring holidays, cooler weather and more yard waste.

This can significantly slow down operations and increase disposal and maintenance costs. The City asks all residents and businesses to help keep streets and gutters clear by managing their own property’s waste and debris.
