Clean Up Schedule

Residents of George Town, Bodden Town, North Side and East End are advised that cleanup crews are collecting debris in their neighborhoods.

People can help speed up the process by sorting hurricane debris before placing it along the roadside in front of their houses. Care should be taken to avoiding placing debris over water meters.

MC Restoration will be making the third and final pass through George Town and Bodden Town between next Monday (31 January) and 18 February.

Meanwhile additional labour crews will be working in Bodden Town and East End, assisting with the general clean up of the environment, including beaches, as these districts were the hardest hit, said Cayman Islands Recovery Operation (CIRO) Operations Manager Mark Scotland.

To date, approximately 200,000 cubic yards of debris has been collected island-wide under the CIRO operation. More than 1,100 derelict vehicles have also been collected and are now being processed at the holding area behind CUC.

Beach restoration is also moving along with approximately 21,000 cubic yards already processed. Of this, more than 3,000 cubic yards of sand has been returned to beaches.

And residents can now also share one of the useful byproducts of the clean-up operation, with CIRO offering free mulch to the public. Mulch may be collected this weekend, on Saturday, 29 January, and Sunday, 30 January, from the Northwest Point debris-processing site. The site is located on Northwest Point Road, on the seaside corner past Dolphin Point Apartments and the cemetery.

A loader will be available and residents are encouraged to collect the mulch with suitable vehicles and large garbage bags. Collection is reserved for personal use only.
