Mayor Kevin Faulconer spent Tuesday morning cleaning up the city

SAN DIEGO (KUSI) – San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer fulfilled a promise he made to city sanitation workers by working all Tuesday morning picking up yard waste for the city’s Environmental Services Department.

He rode on the back of a trash truck and collected greenery from around 400 homes. Faulconer said it gave him the chance see how things are going and what can be done differently.
