Just wanted to say a big "Thank You" for the prompt cleanup on Sellwood Blvd. after the July 4th festivities at Oaks Park. The annual event always draws a large crowd of celebrants to the "bluff" and they always have a bunch of their own fireworks displays. Since my folks moved to their house there in 1965, it has always been a ritual to start July 5th with a street sweeping in front of their house. I had swept the sidewalk and the south side of the street between 6:30 and 7:00 am but had not yet picked up the piles of debris before I had to leave for a while to attend to my grandson. I was pleasantly surprised on my return at 8:00 am that everything had been swept up by city crews and the street had been washed. This is the true hallmark of a City that works.
