The City of Tampa\u2019s Code Enforcement Division will be conducting a huge East Tampa cleanup project beginning this Saturday. The area of focus will be east of 22nd Street, south of 25th Avenue, and if time permits, they will go to 18th Avenue over to 25th Street.<\/p>\n
Susan Wenrick<\/strong>, District Supervisor for East Tampa, said they will be focusing on cleaning up vacant properties, abandoned properties, right-of-ways, and other areas that are overgrown or have a lot of debris.<\/p>\n \u201cWe will be using people court ordered to do community service for the project. After driving around east Tampa, we felt the inner city neighborhoods needed this the most, and for the past month, we decided to address a lot of the concerns that have come from the East Tampa community.\u201d<\/p>\n Wenrick<\/strong> said they will be looking at the worst places first and later they will join the city\u2019s Solid waste Department to remove a lot of items.<\/p>\n Everything will get started at 8 a.m. and the crew will be in the area most of the day.<\/p>\n \u201cWe want the people to come out and talk to us as we go through their area,\u201d said Wenrick<\/strong>.<\/p>\n \u201cWe want to know what their concerns are and what they want to see improved or removed.\u201d<\/p>\n Wenrick<\/strong> said after this project, the week of December 12-17, they will be joining the county in addressing the Grant Park community. She said that project will take a week because of the size of the area.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The City of Tampa\u2019s Code Enforcement Division will be conducting a huge East Tampa cleanup project beginning this Saturday.
