New Gator Utility Vehicle Takes Chomp Out of Winter

Tuesday January 9, 2018

District residents all know that the next “Snowmageddon” or “Snowpocalypse” can hit when least expected. But with the MVT CID’s investment in a new John Deere utility vehicle, our Clean Team now benefits from more industrial-strength support for multiple winter-weather jobs including street/sidewalk salting and snow removal.

Also known as a “Gator,” the vehicle will complement our existing Clean Team truck by providing greater capacity to transport landscaping equipment, event supplies and trash. What’s more, our public space operations staff now has greater reach to the outer boundaries of the CID as well as increased mobility to the neighborhood’s alleys and other tough-to-access areas.

The Gator is in the process of being branded for easy identification. So when you see it on the streets of the MVT CID, you’ll know that we are hard at work maintaining the level of cleanliness that our stakeholders have come to appreciate and expect!
