The amount of litter on the sidewalks and gutters is worthy of a third world country. Why not do what citizens of other countries do naturally and legislate that shopkeepers and homeowners must clean the sidewalks in front of their stores, homes? It doesn’t take much for a person to take a broom and sweep the sidewalk right in front of where they live or work. If everyone pitches in, SF could look much better. And place more garbage cans on street corners (I know people steal them and they cost money). I pick up newspapers flying down the street sometime and carry them for blocks before I can find a place to dispose of them.

I agree with you. I clean up garbage floating up and down my street in front of my house at least 3 times a day. For the life of me, it is a wonder where it all comes from? I have lived here for only 6 years and it is the dirtiest urban center I have ever lived in. Maybe a few litter fine signs of $1000.00 would help and a trash bin on every corner might be an incentive to do the right thing. The ground we walk on is “not” our trash bin, but in SF people treat it that way…or we wouldn’t have trash everywhere.
