Program Service Accomplishments

Program 1

FORMED IN 2010, THE DOWNTOWN PARTNERSHIP CLEAN & SAFE PROGRAM WORKS HARD TO KEEP DOWNTOWN LOOKING ITS BEST THROUGH ENHANCED MAINTENANCE, SAFETY, UNHOUSED CARE, AND BEAUTIFICATION SERVICES ON BEHALF OF THOSE WHO LIVE, WORK, AND PLAY WITHIN THE 275 BLOCKS THAT MAKE UP THE PBID. RESIDENTS, BUSINESSES, AND PROPERTY OWNERS CAN HAVE CONFIDENCE IN DOWNTOWN BECAUSE OF THE BEST PRACTICES, CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT, AND RECOGNIZED EXCELLENCE THAT THE CLEAN & SAFE TEAM BRINGS TO THE RESPONSIBILITY OF SERVING DOWNTOWN'S URBAN NEIGHBORHOODS. FUNDED BY DOWNTOWN PROPERTY OWNERS, THE CLEAN & SAFE SERVICES PROVIDED WITHIN THE NEIGHBORHOODS OF CITY CENTER, COLUMBIA, CORTEZ HILL, EAST VILLAGE, GASLAMP QUARTER, AND MARINA ARE OVER AND ABOVE THOSE OTHERWISE AVAILABLE THROUGH ANY EXISTING GOVERNMENT ENTITY.
