Move Your Car!
Here in Evanston, our street cleaning only happens about 6 times a year. The dates are posted on signs along our street, and one has to remember those dates.
We did get a flyer in the mail about two months ago with the dates for the whole city, but the dates were wrong for our street ("opps!")
In any case, on the day of cleaning a truck actually goes up and down the street and a gruff female voice is broadcast using a megaphone. I really just envision it like the Bluesmobile.
But isn't that a little outdated? I mean, yeah, flyers and the Bluesmobile. ("You, on the beach." "Hey, you.") But why don't I get this over email? Or RSS? Or via iCalendar format? Hmmmm? It's 2006.
I imagine I'll get that by 2015 or so.
In the interim, I just have to check my calendar and make sure I listen for the gruff woman warning me that my car will be ticketed and towed.
Oak Park doesn't do this. They just ticket you.
