In an effort to clean up the litter in the city, the Hapeville Clean & Beautiful Commission is launching an Adopt a Street program for residents, community groups and businesses. The program will allow the public to become personally involved in improving our environment and helping to keep Hapeville’s streets beautiful. This program will set an example for others, especially children, improve the quality of life of our neighborhoods and demonstrate pride in the community. Help is particularly needed on the main thorough-fares through town.

Once individuals and groups have expressed their level of interest, the Hapeville Clean & Beautiful members will prepare a map to assign streets to organizations and citizens.
