Early each morning, sidewalks are vacuumed so Old City "opens clean".Throughout the day, the distinctly uniformed Old City District Cleaning Crew sweeps the side- walks to ensure that Old City remains attractive and clean.

Throughout the day sidewalks throughout the District are cleaned on a regular basis by high-pressure hoses to remove accumulated stains and grime. To ensure the overall quality of the appearance of Old City, maintenance crews regularly remove graffiti from buildings, signs and poles so that Old City can be continuously presentable to the public.

The Old City District presents four major programs: the maintenance program, security program, planning and development program and the management program.
