Join the 2nd Fall 2025 Safe Sidewalk Workday

Nov 17

Join us for the 2nd Fall NCNA Safe Sidewalk workday

📅 When

This Saturday, November 22nd 9-11 AM

📍 Where

We will start near 1211 Westwood and will clean or clear spots along the West / NorthWest side of Hixson Pike from Westwood through to Barton Avenue and Russell. The crew will likely divide and conquer, driving between spots on this route until all is cleaned up so if you arrive late just drive the route and you should quickly find us.

🧰 What to Bring

Must-haves: water, work gloves, sturdy shoes
Nice-to-haves: hedge trimmers, loppers, rakes, flat tipped shovels, leaf blowers, small saws, weed eaters
(We’ll have extra tools on site, so come even if you’re empty-handed.)

📝 What We’ll Do

From Westwood to Russell on Hixson Pike / Barton the sidewalk is partially blocked or covered by debris in multiple locations. Most of the trouble-spots will be pretty easy to clean so we’ll be moving from spot to spot pretty quickly throughout the workday. You can see recent photos of sidewalk obstructions along this route here.

Code Enforcement Inspections Note: if we are aware of any neighbors that need help with code violations we will try to spend time helping with those also. You can read more about the code enforcement inspections that should be happening across district 2 today and tomorrow (11.17 and 11.18) here. Please keep an eye and ear out for neighbors that receive violations and that need help that we may be able to offer.
