Knock, knock...Who's there?

It’s the Sanitation Supervisor. No joke.

Commercial business owners on West Beech Street and throughout Long Beach will receive a visit today from a Sanitation supervisor. He will hand deliver a copy of the newsanitation pick-up times, now expanded to three times throughout the day.

Most importantly, the letter identifies a 30 minute window of time that refuse should be placed on the sidewalk for pick-up.

And in bold letters:

“Please be advised that any garbage placed out at any time not covered by the aforementioned runs will result in a code enforcement violation”.


Keeping garbage off the streets of our commercial corridors throughout the day can only enhance the quality of life for both residents and business owners.

West End Beautification Association (WEBA) extends appreciation to our new Public Works Commissioner, Jim LaCarrubba, for responding to our requests and making this happen.

Over the next few weeks, Mr. LaCarrubba will meet with the Chamber of Commerce to discuss additional sanitation codes up for resolution, as well as enforcement of street and gutter sweeping regulations. He emphasized that the new routes did not require any overtime.    

Stay tuned for some “grate” news coming up next week…
