This is a good collection of links-- thanks

I see several citizen volunteer groups in newspaper articles. The citizens banding together with a public announcement using the newspapers is a powerful approach. CAUSS used this approach in the beginning in Dallas.

Any ”organization” can initiate a city this way; it will open many doors. The newspapers seem to like it.

A private company could promote their business by cleaning up the city and getting free advertising from the local paper with a NEWS article written about the event. Give back to your community business approach could work well.
