Hose down public sidewalks like they do in Paris. It doesn’t rain for 6 months at a time here, and there has been human poo on my neighbors building for months. Plus, bird poo and car brake dust builds up. I see private buildings with sidewalk cleaners working for literally 4 hours on a 50 strip of walk - this is a huge waste. There is no public life that goes on in those areas anyhow (financial skyscrapers). In Paris they have special trucks with extender hoses that go over the parked cars to hose down the streets - everything gets hit about once a week. Provides jobs for low-skilled workers too as it is a 3 man operation where one person is sweeping stuff into the gutter, one operates the hose, and one drives.
