The Street Sweeping Department’s mission is to support the health, safety, and welfare of the citizens of Frederick by street cleaning, with the objectives of improvement of the quality of storm water runoff, removal of foreign matter, extension of the life of the roads, and maintaining a clean appearance.
There is a day shift and a night shift comprised of one employee per shift. The areas assigned to the night shift are posted with No Parking signs on certain nights to allow the street to be properly serviced. The total area of streets swept is approximately 300 miles.
