This week, our DPW seasonal workers cleaned the marina behind Hutchinson Field, helping the City move closer to compliance with DEC regulations while improving one of our valued community spaces.

Their impact doesn’t stop there. Throughout Mount Vernon, these dedicated workers are tackling beautification projects, removing debris, maintaining public spaces, and addressing quality-of-life concerns that make a real difference in our neighborhoods.

This week, the City of Mount Vernon’s Quality of Life Task Force conducted inspections and enforcement efforts along Mount Vernon Avenue as part of the City's ongoing commitment to cleaner, safer, and more welcoming neighborhoods.

The Task Force focuses on areas with recurring quality-of-life concerns, working directly with property owners, businesses, and residents to address violations and bring properties into compliance. While education and outreach remain the first priority, continued noncompliance may result in fines and enforcement actions.

This is not a one-time initiative. Our Quality of Life Task Force is on the ground every week and will continue conducting inspections and follow-up visits throughout the coming months.

Together, we can build a cleaner, safer, and more vibrant Mount Vernon for everyone. 💙🏙️
