What I want to know is why the street sweeper never comes to the south side of El Centro. Other parts of the city have a certain day when the street sweeper comes by and cleans the street. If anyone wants to see a swamp, simply drive by Willow Bend and look at virtually every intersection. You’ll notice the city drains plugged up with dirt that actually grows grass.

This is perfect for the little three-wheeled police cruiser to issue citations to vehicles that appear to be abandoned and non-operable. One idea would be to fit the three-wheeled police vehicle with a few brushes and a vacuum which would solve the problem since vehicle T-086 passes by every day. — Dirty Streets, El Centro'>Why are some areas of El Centro not on the street-sweeping schedule?
