Adopt-A-Road
When you join the Iliamna Village Adopt-A-Road program, you become a vital part of an important public/private partnership, you join the Solid Waste Division and the Iliamna community dedicated to keeping Iliamna’s roadsides clean and attractive.
No special skills or experience are required – just a commitment to the community and concern for the environment.
The purpose of this program is to allow for residents, organizations and local businesses to assist in keeping our valley beautiful and trash free. You will be able to request a Iliamna road or right of way to maintain, protect the cleanliness of our neighborhoods, and be a part of making the valley a beautiful place to reside.
