Spring cleaning crews will officially be out and about in the streets and green spaces starting April 18th.

Parks Manager Dave Green explains the main force of the crew does not return to work until that date but they have nonetheless been doing some minor clean-up in the meantime.

"We're doing some minor litter pick-up with the couple fellows that we have but the main force will be starting on April 18th, weather permitting."

He notes which projects will be attended first.

"The first project is cleaning the centre of Saskatchewan Avenue and then Island Park, cemeteries and all the green areas around town after that."

As long as the weather cooperates, you can expect to see parks crews out in the coming weeks.
