West Jordan City has released a list of simple tasks residents can perform this spring to maintain neighborhood cleanliness and safety. These efforts include monitoring storm drains, trimming trees for street sweeping, and reporting city maintenance issues.

Key takeaways

  • Checking storm drains helps prevent flooding and protects Jordan River water quality.
  • Trimming park strip trees to 15 feet of clearance assists annual street sweeping efforts.
  • Residents should report potholes, broken signs, and streetlight outages to city crews.
  • Upcoming community cleanup opportunities include Dumpster Day and E-Waste events.

As spring arrives, West Jordan residents can participate in several simple activities to help keep the city clean, safe, and running smoothly.

According to West Jordan City, these tasks involve maintaining local infrastructure and participating in community cleanup efforts.

One recommended action is for residents to adopt or check storm drains. Because storm drains in West Jordan flow directly into the Jordan River, keeping them clear of debris, trash, and leaves helps protect water quality and prevents flooding.

City officials suggest that even checking the drain near a home following a storm can make a difference.

To assist with city-wide maintenance, residents are encouraged to trim trees and branches in park strips. This allows street sweepers, which clear over 900 miles of curb and gutter annually, to have approximately 15 feet of clearance to clean effectively.

Additionally, the City encourages residents to report any observed issues such as potholes, broken signs, or outages in streetlights so that crews can respond quickly.

Residents are also invited to participate in upcoming E-Waste events and Dumpster Day as part of city cleanup efforts.

Citizens can stay updated on all ongoing construction projects taking place within the city.
