In June 2020, The New York City Council passed a budget that slashed over 100 million dollars from sanitation services. We are seeing the impact of this budget reduction right here on Liberty Avenue. Black and Brown communities suffer from the failures of our elected officials. 

Liberty Avenue has seen an overflowing of trash cans, mini-litter islands, and streets covered in hazardous materials. Even more, there are vast blocks without a single trash-can. This is a disservice not only to our community but to the Black + Brown business owners whose storefronts suffer at the failures of our local governance. 

We cannot ask our community members to do better if our government is not leading by example and delivering the resources needed for our community to do better. 

Join the collective effort to bring forth a minimum of 28 new garbage can sites on Liberty Ave. where pre-existing garbage routes exist. Sign our petition, and please share! 

Who protects the community? WE protect the community!

Our Demand:  
Our Demand is quite simple, we are calling on the New York City Department of Sanitation to implement a minimum of at least 1 new garbage can site per each street number at one of the vacant corners listed below, totaling 28 new garbage can sites on Liberty Avenue where pre-existing garbage pick-up routes are already in effect.
