‘Before’ and ‘after’ results of massive Oakland cleanup revealed: photos

(KRON) — Photos posted on Facebook by Oakland Mayor Barbara Lee showed the “before” and “after” results of a massive weekend cleanup. According to Lee, crews completed 221 service requests last weekend and removed illegal dumping, cut back weeds, hauled debris and painted over graffiti.

“This past weekend, our Keep The Town Clean crews cleaned across the city,” Lee wrote, “tackling BART tracks from E 8th to 14th Avenue, sweeping International Boulevard and San Leandro Street corridors, and hitting hot spots throughout the area.”

Photos accompanying Lee’s post showed the results at three of the sites the crews cleaned, including one on San Leandro Street.
