Local Businesses Step
Up In Street Cleaning Effort!
Main Streets and The Chamber thank local businesses for helping
to make streets cleaner.
East Boston, MA, 26-Jan-2009
— Working with the East Boston Neighborhood
Response Team chaired by Councilor Sal Lamattina, Main Streets and the
Chamber of Commerce have asked local businesses to sponsor privately
the maintenance of barrels to supplement the barrels placed by the
City to combat street trash.
Eighteen businesses have stepped
up to keep the area in front of their businesses free of litter.
Results have been very positive, and the businesses have responded by
maintaining cleanliness and paying for trash removal daily, keeping
otherwise certain litter off of the streets. Participating businesses
include: Eddie C’s, BYN Graphics, East Boston Chiropractic, Rosticeria
Cancun, Meridian 155, Pericola’s, Karen Food Market, Family Dollar,
East Coast Variety, Mobil Gas Station, Jocelyn Grocery, Angela’s Café,
La Bendicion Market, Sava’s Market, Elvis & Ely’s Barber Shop, El Buen
Gusto and El Sol Market.
The Chamber and Main Streets are
asking all businesses to maintain clean storefronts, and are also
working with the City to place newer and larger receptacles in the
commercial districts. For more information, please contact East Boston
Main Streets at 617.561.1044 or the East Boston Chamber of Commerce at
617.569.5000.
