Adopt a Spot
The Adopt-a-Spot program is designed for volunteer groups or individuals in a cooperative effort to clean, maintain, improve, and beautify our local environment. These areas include any unsightly public littered places that need our care for their improvement. The informational packets cover everything you could want to know. The basic rules are: try to pick up litter at least once a month. Use orange bags for litter to be left on the street for Maintenance and Environmental Services to pick up. Call them at 457-3275 and let them know where the bags are (okay to leave a message). Orange bags and disposable gloves can be picked up on the 3rd floor of the Student Center (Room 318 - Office of Student Engagement), OR at Hickory Lodge (Park District Office on Sycamore), OR at Building and Neighborhood Services (City Hall 2nd floor). Call KCB at 525-5525 if you have questions.
Informational Packets are available in the Office of Student Engagement (Room 318 of Student Center). That includes the application form to adopt a spot. You can also pick up the Adopt-a-Spot documentation form there. All three can be downloaded to your computer ... right now. See below.
Want to adopt* your own spot?
