FROM: District II
Costa
July 22, 1986 County
DATE:
Litter Control on Carquinez scenic -Drive
SUBJECT:
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
REQUEST:
That the City of Martinez, County Administration, Sheriff ' s
Department and County Health Services coordinate their
efforts to expel the growing litter problem along the
Carquinez Scenic Drive.
That the above mentioned officials and departments
responsible for the health and welfare of Martinez and
County residents join forces in combating the growing
disregard of some of our residents for the health and safety
of others.
BACKGROUND:
The Carquinez Scenic Drive has become a dumping ground for
litter, garbage, abandoned vehicles, and human waste of all
kinds.
Attempts to clean up the area over the past few years has
been met with little success. It seems that as soon as the
added patrols stop and the litter details move on to other
problem areas the dumping commences all over again.
The time is ripe for the City and County to study the
feasibility of closing the Carquinez Scenic Drive near the
Western boundary of the Alhambra Cemetery. Without a
coordinated effort this visual pollution will continue
unabated.
