Discussion and action directing the City Manager and City Attorney to return within 60 days with recommendations for establishing a City of El Paso Adopt-a-Street Program.   This program would give schools, neighborhood associations, civic groups, businesses, and other organizations the opportunity to partner with the City to keep El Paso's streets clean. Modeled after TxDOT's Adopt-a-Highway and similar municipal programs in Round Rock, Ft. Worth, Dallas, San Antonio, Austin, and Lubbock, it would provide a structured way to support litter control, beautification, and community pride.   The proposal should: Review successful models from other municipalities; Allow eligible groups to adopt segments of city-maintained streets; Provide City support (litter bags, safety vests, recognition signage, and waste collection); Include safety guidelines, volunteer waivers, and cleanup frequency requirements; Present cost estimates and possible funding sources; and Explore expansion into Adopt-a-Park, Adopt-a-Spot, and or other public space options.
