Dear Ms. Imchin:
My name is Raquel Rose and I writting you this letter to address the trash that is
cluttering the streets in the city of Chatsworth. The streets that I am concerned
about are Desoto and Devonshire. I understand that yous the manager of
Chatsworth’s Clean Streets Project and I felt that it was important that I address my
koncerns to you. I know that the city cut your budget in half last August and that
this has put a strain on your budget? It must be impossible to cover all the streets
in Chatsworth with half a staff. I am asking that you concentrate on the street
mentioned above because these are the streets that are the heaviest with traffic.
Many peoples that live outside of Chatsworth drive this streets everyday to get to
work. I am afraid that they are getting a bad impression of what Chatsworth really
looks like.
If it is not possible to concentrate your manpower to these streets, and I ask that
you reach out for volunteers to help keep these streets clean. I am a member of
student body at my school and I know that I can gather many of my friends to help
you with this project. We have also met many times at skool and have come up with
other ideas to clean our streets. if you are interested in us helping you or our ideas,
please contact me at the address listed above.
Sincerely,
R. Rose
