Join Us in Keeping Council Bluffs Beautiful
Adopt-A-Street (AAS) is a community partnership program that brings together local organizations and residents to help keep our streets clean and beautiful. This collaborative effort not only enhances the appearance of our city but also provides participants with meaningful opportunities for teamwork, community engagement, and service hours—a true win-win for Council Bluffs.
How it Works
• Adopt: You agree to sponsor / clean a specific stretch of street (see our list of available streets) for 4 years.
• Clean: Perform litter removal 2–3 times per year, on a schedule that works for you.
** We do encourage you to coordinate one of those times with Clean Sweep insert link in May.
• Supplies: We provide all necessary materials—safety vests, gloves, trash bags, and grabbers. Solid Waste will pick up the trash bags and any other items.
• Get Recognized: A sign with your name or organization will appear on signage installed along your adopted street and is listed on our site.
