Adopting a street is a valuable opportunity to make a difference in the community and enhance the overall appearance of Fort Collins. Adopt-A-Street volunteers take pride in their contribution to their community and their efforts in increasing public awareness about litter control.
- How Does the Adoption Process Work?
-
Contact the City of Fort Collins Streets Department at 970-221-6615 or email to request information at streets@fcgov.com. We will assist in choosing a one mile section of a street that works best for you. Your group representative will receive a contract and each participant must sign a release for each clean up.
- Acknowledgement and Recognition
-
After an organization completes three clean-ups, the City Streets will install a sign crediting the adopting group at the beginning and end of the adopted street section. Signs will include the organization's group name and the City's logo, and will remain in place as long as the adoption contract is current.
- Who Usually Adopts?
