The Clean Team works to improve the cleanliness of the District every day from 7am to 7pm. MMCBD provides sidewalk sweeping, steam cleaning, monitoring of public trash receptacles for overflow, trash removal, weeding of tree basins, reporting of large items for removal by the Department of Public Works and graffiti abatement.

Highly trained Community Ambassadors walk the District, offering assistance in the areas of way-finding, pedestrian safety, and social service outreach 7 days a week, 7am to 7pm. They are easy to spot goodwill ambassadors in bright blue uniforms that ask “How can we help?” The team is in radio contact with a central dispatch office that logs all incoming calls, dispatches services and tracks completion.

MMCBD’s co-responder teams include a SFPD 10B Officer and a Community Ambassador who proactively walk targeted-areas in the District and together respond to calls for service. By drawing upon the combined expertise of the Officer and the Community Ambassador, the team is able to effectively and efficiently address pedestrian safety issues and link individuals in need with the appropriate services.

MMCBD helps attract and retain small businesses in the District. A list of available ground floor commercial retail spaces available in and around the District can be found here; it also spearheads the annual 2 Blocks of Art art walk along the 6th Street corridor as well as other annual events and programs that enhance District economic vitality.
