OC cleanup day postponed until April 28

From staff reports

The city’s annual cleanup event set for today has been postponed due to inclement weather and rescheduled for Wednesday, April 28.

Kathy Bailey, manager of Oil City Main Street Program, said there were 19 groups registered to participate in the event and all of them were notified of the change.

“The weather forecast includes freezing temperatures and potential snow accumulation – which is not compatible with sidewalk sweeping, litter pickup and hosing down of city streets,” Bailey said.

“After consulting with Oil City’s fire and public works departments, we have determined that it is in the best interest of all involved to postpone the event until next week,” she said.

The annual cleanup event is hosted by the Main Street Program in conjunction with the City of Oil City with additional support from PennDOT and Keep PA Beautiful.
