Trash Cleanup | The Highlands
On Sunday, March 24, 11 residents of The Highlands walked up and down Palisades Drive, picking up what Pacific Palisades Community Council Representative Steve Cron described as an “enormous amount of trash.”
“For a long time, we’ve been trying unsuccessfully to get different city agencies to clean up the trash along Palisades Drive,” Cron explained. “Rather than continuing to wait and complain, we decided to take care of it on our own.”
Cron reported that the group felt “really great” about taking care of their neighborhood.
