Vanderbilt Open Streets Survey on Business Waste

The Center for Zero Waste Design is working with  Prospect Heights Neighborhood Development Council to look at how to better manage the waste created on Vanderbilt Avenue.

We will assess the litter bin, residential and commercial waste produced in the open streets, and propose solutions to better manage waste and improve the cleanliness of the streetscape. Implementing these solutions will require approval from the city and additional funding.

Your input in this survey provides valuable information for our project. Thank you for completing it!

Note, if you are not a business owner on Vanderbilt between Park Place and Atlantic Avenue, please complete either the Resident Survey (if you live on the Open Street) or the Visitor Survey (if you live nearby or visit the Open Street). Thank you!
