Neighborhood Clean-up

 

One of the focus areas (Phase I of the 90-day plan) determined by Parkwood Corridor community leaders was neighborhood beautification for community pride and to clean up those areas that become havens for drug use and prostitution.

 

Parkwood Corridor Community Residents, PSN Task force members, Faith Community Volunteers and the Charlotte Mecklenburg Police Department Community Policing Officers came together for this event. Bags, Pickers (to avoid picking up used drug needles and other biohazards by hand) and Gloves were donated by City Sanitation, who also collected all the orange trash bags and heaps of bulk trash items. As peoples of different backgrounds worked side by side for a common goal, children and adults in the community joined us along the way.
