Press release from the City of Peoria:

May 18, 2020

The 2020 Great American Cleanup, scheduled for Saturday, June 27, 2020, has been postponed due to COVID-19. Keep Peoria Beautiful and the city of Peoria Community Development Department will issue an additional press release when a new date has been determined.

This cleanup effort is an opportunity to show appreciation for your neighborhood and gives all of us more reasons to appreciate Peoria. During the Great American Cleanup, the Community Development Department supplies dumpsters and volunteers and partners with neighborhood associations to make a lasting impact in the fight against blight.

In the meantime, the Community Development Department continues to encourage residents to maintain their properties by ensuring that grass is mowed, weeds are pulled, and the property is free of litter and debris.

For more information on COVID-19 and the latest recommendations from public officials, please visit the Peoria City/County Health Department’s website at https://www.pcchd.org/289/COVID-19-Coronavirus or call 2-1-1.
