Resident praises Keep El Campo Beautiful volunteers after fall sweep
Summary
At the Oct. 27 meeting a resident, John Hancock, commended Keep El Campo Beautiful volunteers and city crews for a rainy 'fall sweep' that aided about 11 households with large debris removal and traffic control.
EL CAMPO — During public comment at the Oct. 27 City Council meeting, John Hancock praised the Keep El Campo Beautiful volunteer group and city staff for a recent fall sweep that he said assisted about 11 households with bulky debris removal.
Hancock said volunteers and city employees worked in the rain and that local residents in need were assisted when volunteers and a local contractor — named in the meeting as Billy Freeman — provided equipment and labor to remove large items such as storm-damaged trees and tires. "It's the kind of thing that's working," Hancock said, and he thanked city staff and volunteers for their efforts.
Hancock asked the council to clarify how residents who cannot remove large debris themselves can request help; the transcript records the request but no follow-up details or program procedures were provided during the meeting.
