Litter Abatement

NNMD De-Litter Campaign

Near Northwest Management District kicked off its litter abatement program in March 2016 after a law enforcement official remarked that the District “…didn’t have a crime problem, it had a litter problem.” Litter in our area gave the appearance of neglect. NNMD instituted a contract litter abatement program with regular routes along our commercial corridors. In the first month, 3,200 pounds of litter (1.6 tons) and 175 “bandit” signs were removed; that totaled almost 93 pounds of trash per mile. With cleaner streets and sidewalks, the “pounds per mile” has decreased – a sure sign of increased pride in our area.
