Baltimore Mayor announces competition to clean up city streets

BALTIMORE, Md. (WBFF) — The fall cleanup is right around the corner and this year Mayor Jack Young is turning it into a competition.

“The idea is simple, compete against your neighbors and other communities to see who can collect the most trash,” he said.

To sign up for the Cleanup Cup you have to create a team and call 3-1-1.

From there you can use your service request number to register online.

Then on cleanup day all you have to do is record the number of bags of trash or bulk items your team collects, record them on your tally form and snap a picture.

Yeah... That'll work.

How about: “The idea is simple, compete against your neighbors and other communities to see who can sell the most heroin and crack”?
OR:
“The idea is simple, compete against your neighbors and other communities to see who can collect the least murder victims.”?

Why don't you just do it, why do you need a government competition

Why doesn't Baltimore government "just do it", or are they sneakily admitting that they "can't do it"?

They need to clean up their so called leaders in Baltimore. What is the latest on former Mayor Pugh and her Healthy Holly book scam where she pocketed over $800,000.00?

Let's get the citizens to do it. Then we can pocket more money from the sanitation budget. That's how city government works!
