Sharp Looking Streets

Have you seen the Nat Geo TV series Life After People? The series shows what our planet would look like if no humans existed in a variety of future times. Shortly after the absence of humans mother nature takes hold quickly and streets and walkways are soon overrun with grass, weeds and brush.

If you have noticed, our city street crews have been removing the overgrowth of grass and weeds from the street curbs in preparation for repainting those areas requiring curb painting. The streets that have been completed really look good. I asked if there was a tool that made the removal easy aside from elbow grease and brute strength. The answer was no tool existed but the young summer helpers will have strong arms by the end of the summer. One street that looks particularly good is Franklin. The cleaned curbs really enhance the look of the street.

If you happen to see the crews working, stop and tell them you can see a positive difference.
