Yard Waste Pickup Begins April 20th Waste Management will resume weekly Yard Waste services from April 20 – December 28. Please note that barrels marked Yard Waste will only be serviced if they have a yellow “Yard Debris Only” sticker. Stickers can be picked up at DPW or at City Hall.
STREET SWEEPING Ward 4 North End
Street sweeping is conducted 10:30 PM to 7:00 AM, Sunday night through Friday morning to minimize the disruption to residents.
The City of Providence Street Sweeping Program is scheduled to sweep all sections of the City a minimum of four times during the course of the year. Some areas, particularly the business corridors will be swept more frequently.
Please keep in mind that the schedule is subject to change due to weather and staffing. Anyone with overnight parking permits will also be notified by email with the street sweeping schedule to make alternate parking arrangements to minimize interfering with street sweeping activities.
***** We did it! The community came together and successfully prevented the recycling plant from receiving a license, avoiding what could have been a significant blight for years to come. ******
Councilman Justin Roias submitted the Providence City Council Opposition letter to the Pawtucket City Council last night. Allied Recycle has threatened to appeal this ruling in the Supreme Court, and Councilman Roias will be working with the city attorneys to determine the next steps if they decide to proceed.
Our neighborhood’s strength truly shined through—thanks to the collective effort of residents from the North End and Pawtucket. The support from the Providence City Council, along with the emails, signatures, testimonies from last night, and our unity, was instrumental in securing this victory.
