The long winter has come to an end and spring has finally arrived. There are many ways to enjoy the nice weather and cleaning is one of them! Spring cleaning is a great way to enjoy the outdoors and maintain your home at the same time.

The Health and Inspections Department of St. Cloud is asking all residents to pick up a broom, rake, or wheel barrel and get started. Well maintained homes do increase property values and the overall appearance of the city.

Some common cleaning activities include removing garbage and weeds from yard, making sure grass is cut less than 10 inches and vehicles are stored in proper locations. For more information contact the Health and Inspections Department at 320-255-7214
