Thank you for this information David. I had never heard about it before. The city does not spread information very well.

I am volunteer with Keep Dimond Clean. The Environmental Stewardship program works with Keep Oakland Clean and Beautiful.org. PWD has stopped picking litter and the only way to keep our business dist clean is to do ourselves. We sadly average 12,000 pounds of trash and litter every year. In the past two week we have picked up more than 50 bags of trash.
