COMMUNITY CLEANUP DAY

ILLUSTRATION: Staff photo by MICHAEL KESTNER

Children from Hall Place carry trash bags as they collect litter in

neighborhood drainage ditches. For months, Hall Place residents have

been asking Suffolk city officials and the housing authority to help

them improve their neighborhood, which borders the downtown business

district. Homeowners in the community have been reporting housing

violations to the city, patrolling the streets to fight crime and

planning cleanup days, such as the one held last Saturday. by CNB
