In response to growing awareness surrounding the local environment and the City's commitment to maintaining cleaner streets, the City has implemented the Ocean Safe Street Sweeping Program. This program reduces the amount of debris and litter carried to our beaches through the storm drain system. The program calls for installing street sweeping signs for all blocks previously posted in January 1996. Because many factors affect the need for street sweeping signs, the City has developed a petition process for residents to request street sweeping signs be installed from the street immediately adjacent to their residence.

Sweeping consists of all public streets, paved public alleys, and specified parking lots in the City of Manhattan Beach in accordance with the sweeping schedule. The City posts a sign to indicate the sweeping time intervals so that cars parked along the road can be moved when sweeping occurs. All streets are to be swept on a once-a-week schedule. On many of the main streets, business districts, and other specified areas, there are signs posted to indicate the sweeping time interval as being more frequent than once a week.

NOTE: Private streets and County roads are out of the City's jurisdiction and are not maintained through this program.
