The City's street cleaning program removes dirt and debris from City streets to provide a healthy, safe, and inviting environment for Woodburn residents and visitors. Regular removal of leaves and debris by City crews as well as members of the public is necessary to prevent stormwater drains from clogging, which can result in street flooding. Street cleaning protects water quality and minimizes the burden on the sewer system from surface debris.
