Lakeside Neighbors:

DPW will be sweeping Burlington's South End streets Thursday night. Cars must not be parked on-street from 10PM Thursday night until 7AM Friday morning. Cars left on-street may be subject to a $75 ticket and $75 tow fee. Free parking is available in the Downtown Garage and Marketplace Garage on your night of sweeping from 7PM-9AM.

*Why Clean Sweep? *Clean Sweep is vital to Lake health and our health. It keeps nutrient pollution out of the Lake which fuels cyanobacteria blooms, keeps the roads safer by clearing them of debris and keeps our infrastructure in better shape by limiting flooding from clogged storm drains. We NEED your help this year.

*Is this the only time of year we sweep? *Far from it. We begin sweeping as soon as the weather turns and the sweepers can be de-winterized. In 2023 we began sweeping in mid-March and will be sweeping until the snow comes back!

Can I help clean up the greenbelt/sidewalk by pushing leaves or debris into the roadway? Please don't! The best way for you to help is to ensure cars, basketball hoops and any other items are out of the street. Sweeping debris into the street creates potential hazards for bikers and pedestrians so please avoid that!
