“Earth Day is being celebrated everyday in your New Ninth District, as we work to clean up — and green up — our community,” Councilman Curren D. Price told his constituents recently.
“From our targeted community clean-up initiative to opening up new parks and community gardens, we are on a mission to transform our neighborhoods starting with improving our environment.
“This weekend we held four community clean-ups across the district to celebrate Earth Day, with dozens of community volunteers and collected tons of trash and bulky items. As we take a moment today to think about preserving our environment, visit sites like www.epa.gov/earthday/tips for tips on how to live ‘greener.’”
Price also invited the community to present their ideas for environmental changes, and on activities or policies they would like to see his office take on by visiting the ninth district website contact page, www.the-new-ninth.com. Visit the site also, for volunteer information for their next clean and green event.
