Be sure and come out August 7, for Sanford's event! There will be divisions of the national celebration all over the city.

National Night Out, Are You Signed Up?

Everyone it's time for National Night Out Sanford 2012! Save some room in your busy schedule August 7th to fight crime in a neighborhood near you. National Night Out is designed to

Heighten crime and drug prevention awareness;

Generate support for, and participation in, local anti crime programs;

Strengthen neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships; and

Send a message to criminals letting them know that neighborhoods are organized and fighting back.

Outdoor lights and front porch vigils aren't the only ways to celebrate in Sanford. We at the City are hosting several :

• block parties,
• cookouts,
• visits from local police and sheriff departments,
• parades, exhibits,
• flashlight walks,
• contests, and
• youth programs.

NNO has proven to be an effective, inexpensive and enjoyable program to promote neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships in our fight for a safer nation. Plus, the benefits your community will derive from NNO will most certainly extend well beyond the one night. For more information on the event visit http://www.nationaltownwatch.org/nno/about.html or www.sanfordnc.net

Disposal of Dead Creatures

 Unfortunately some animals are not handling the heat very well.  For disposal of dead animals call NC DOT at 919-775-3122.  If on city maintained streets, call the service center at 919-775-8247. We appreciate your help in this manner.

I can't see!!!!!

The city removes site distance obstructions, which are objects that substantially block the sufficient vision of drivers such as limbs. To avoid sign pollution, the city only erects traffic signs that are necessary to provide a safe travel environment for pedestrians, bicyclist, and motorist. For more information or to report a site distance problem, call the Public Works Service Center (919) 775-8247.

Be mindful of those clippings!

Just a reminder……Please do not blow grass clippings out into the road. Clippings should be piled up behind the curb or beside the edge of the road so it can be picked up by our solid waste division.
