VVS continues to be involved with several City events by either sponsoring an event, attending an event, or providing containers for events. Graffiti seemed to be at a minimum in 2025
along with scavenging and contamination. VVS hopes that this will continue in 2026. Communication with the City’s Senior Management Analysts has continued to be excellent and VVS
is looking forward to another great year.
