Cleaner and Greener!
The SCSSD Residential Cleaning Team has added a new piece of equipment for street and sidewalk cleaning. The new 'green' sweeper is eco-friendly, having no motor and zero emissions. The brushes of the sweeper are self-propelled as the unit is pushed. The sweeper has been quite effective in picking up cinders, gravel, and other small debris during our "detail" cleaning operations.

SCSSD Funds Tree Trimming Project
Street trees are a valuable community asset and SCSSD is proud to help residents and the City by performing periodic tree maintenance.
The Sports Complex Special Services District, or SCSSD for short, is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation that serves approximately 9,000 residents living in 4,100 households surrounding the Sports Complex venues in South Philadelphia.
SCSSD is engaged in a mission to:
- Protect Community Interests
- Improve Neighborhood Quality of Life
- Promote Efficient Operation of Adjacent Sports Venues
SCSSD was established in 2002 and began active operations in March of 2003. In 2001, the three sports venue operators — Comcast-Spectacor, the Philadelphia Phillies, and the Philadelphia Eagles — committed a combined $1 million annual contribution (with annual CPI adjustment) to fully fund SCSSD efforts and address the unique needs of South Philadelphia residents living in close proximity to an active, world-class Sports Complex. SCSSD is the only such district in the nation created for community benefit and financed entirely by local sports teams.
