Adopt a Street Program and Members
Port St. Lucie, A Litter Free Community !
This program reduces the number of areas that rely on City resources for maintenance. When businesses and individuals assume the responsibility of maintaining specific sites within the City of Port St. Lucie, not only do they benefit City resources, but also provide colorful and creative green spaces throughout our city. In addition to business and individuals, Adopt A Street is a great project for Church Groups, Scouts, Service Clubs, and other social organizations.
How do you join up? Just contact the Keep Port St. Lucie Beautiful Committee (kpslb@cityofpsl.com) or Public Works (772-871-5100), or click on the links below for further information or an application.

What? Is this possible? It certainly can be! Currently, more than forty-six miles of city streets are litter free thanks to over forty-five groups and individuals who have adopted these public roadways -- about one mile per group. With 150,000+ people in the City of Port St. Lucie, it would be very easy for the remaining 814 miles of city-maintained roads to be litter free. All that is needed are a few more volunteers to sign up for the city's Adopt-A-Street Program. With your help, our City can be litter free ! Removing litter before it reaches the city storm system also reduces the amount of storm water runoff pollution, thus keeping our wetlands, lakes and rivers cleaner.
So what's involved in adopting a street? All that is really needed is a little of your time and the willingness to collect litter on your adopted street at least once every three months (more if you want). Everything else is provided free of charge: litter tongs, trash bags, safety vests, training, and the pick up and disposal of collected trash. All you have to do is to pick it up !
Everyone can be involved . . .
-
Businesses: Set the example and either individually or collectively adopt the street in front of your businesses.
-
Churches: Encourage your congregation and youth groups to adopt the street that runs in front of your church.
-
Civic and other community organizations: Publicize the good works of your organization by adopting a street (or two or three).
-
Homeowner associations: Adopt the streets around the perimeter of your communities.
-
Homeowners: Take care of the community like you take care of your property, and adopt the street in front of your home. (Enlist your neighbors to join you by forming a neighborhood group).
-
Joggers and walkers: Incorporate some bending and stooping exercises in your routine, and adopt the street where you run.
-
Schools: Sponsor a student group to keep your school grounds and surrounding roads litter free.
In addition to helping Port St. Lucie be litter free, your group will be recognized by a sign with your group's name being posted at both ends of your adopted street.
With everyone's help, the headline "Port St. Lucie,A
Litter Free Community" can be a reality.
Thank you Volunteers !
