The City’s <br />Facilities crews are out every day tidying up sidewalks, streets, public <br />structures and the park block areas. <br /> <br />As one crew member was pressure-washing Kesey Plaza on Tuesday, <br />passersby may have noticed a new sign with a “Keeping water clean for us <br />all” message. The sign is a good reminder that Eugene residents and <br />business owners share the common value that clean water is important to <br />protect in this community. That translates to everyone trying to keep <br />pollution out of storm drains and ultimately, local waterways. <br /> <br />The City’s Public Works Department and Central Services Facilities <br />Division collaborate on putting information signs where cleaning activities <br />are taking place. This also allows the Downtown Facilities crews to <br />demonstrate good examples of ways to protect storm drains from runoff. <br />The City’s “clean water” education page, www.happyrivers.org, is also <br />listed on the sign as a resource for those interested in learning more. <br /> <br />For questions or additional information, contact Stormwater Information <br />Specialist Kathy Eva at Kathy.a.eva@ci.eugene.or.us or 541-682-2739. <br /> <br /> <br />EUGENE CITY COUNCIL NEWSLETTER PAGE 1 <br />July 23, 2015 <br />
