San Francisco Mayor Daniel Lurie has announced a new initiative to increase neighborhood street cleaning through a “power washing program” in high-traffic commercial areas.
The plan is in partnership with and backed by $3 million in funding from Avenue Greenlight, a new philanthropically funded community-driven initiative to promote the economic recovery and community revitalization of the city’s commercial corridors.
