Adopt-A-Spot is a new program to help communities take pride in their
neighborhoods. Volunteer groups, institutions, families, etc. have an
opportunity to accept the responsibility of removing litter from an agreed-upon
area for a one-year commitment. Examples of volunteer groups and organizations
include families, schools, churches, businesses, industries, government
agencies, and community service organizations. The purpose of the program is to
instill community pride, raise public awareness and to improve the appearance of
our parks, roadways and neighborhoods in Erie County.
Any interested groups will be responsible for cleaning an agreed-upon area
within Erie County three times per year for a one year period. In return, Erie
County Solid Waste Reduction Program will provide public recognition for their
exceptional efforts. Additionally, Erie County Solid Waste Reduction Program
will provide collection bags and will arrange for transportation of the
collected materials to a disposal facility.
Participation in the Erie County “Adopt-A-Spot” Program can be arranged by
contacting Erie County Solid Waste Reduction Program (419) 433-7303 ext. 249 or
registering by e-mail
Erie County Recycling.
