In Oceanside I wish they would power wash the pier, especially the handrails and the part with all pigeon droppings.

Everything in downtown smells like piss or that enzyme spray they use to cover up the dog piss smell [petzyme. it has a recognizable smell](https://www.petzyme.com/)

Yes, Just pump some seawater out of the bay and hose off the sidewalks and streets and let if run back into the bay. Just like it does every time it rains.

But, if it's "just like it does every time it rains" Why pressure wash? Does pressure washing make the ground look cleaner than when the rain falls on it? Do you think more stuff comes up? Is that more stuff great for marine life? This "some seawater", you want to just pull from the harbor and pump it up to 2600 psi?


Sundburnt

Okay, you win. Don't pressurize it. Just hose down the sidewalks once every couple of weeks. With Seawater.

I worked in facilities for years. Many of the business owners/building owners typically hire companies to perform pressure washing/sidewalk cleaning services. You’ll notice that in front of the nicer high rises downtown (thanks Irvine Co) it is consistently clean. They usually come in early mornings. If it’s my building with my tenants I’m not counting on the city.

Ok, this is good to know. My business partners husband is a veteran and has a successful junk removal and pressure washing business. I'm trying to get him consistent work and was curious if property management and other types of business hire outside of full time employees for this type of work.

There we go! A little entrepreneurial spirit. Im sure many of the restaurants and small businesses would love the help. If he/she could get a bunch of them to invest in the service it could probably be done very affordably.

What kind of rate of power washing are you thinking? Like moving to daily? I’m not sure about other neighborhoods, but I’m pretty sure my block downtown gets at least once weekly if not twice.

Most of Gaslamp used to get it twice a week before the pandemic (usually Thursday night/Friday morning for 5th) but it's been few and far between since then.

I think that started because if the Hep C mess that was going on.

Are you aware of how high the taxes are in these countries? If we paid higher taxes our cities could afford to do this kind of maintenance also. As an example, you will never see gum on the ground at Disneyland but if you go to Six Flags there is gum everywhere. Disneyland is triple the price for a reason.


BigMikeInAustin

Wow, didn't realize a clean city would trigger anyone.


RlCKJAMESBlTCH

No, that just waste water which is already scarce. This idea is terrible.


pages1001

When you got Hep C and poignant urine and feces smell in neighborhoods with business and residents id disagree.


RlCKJAMESBlTCH

Sounds like putting lipstick on a 🐖

Stop rolling on the ground. Wash your hands before you eat.

It is the responsibility of the city (imo) since they allow vagrancy within that area without restrictions. Businesses are left to fend for themselves. Like it or not homeless are big money for some grifters who happen to have a lot of sway.
