Run a litter count along a dry public path in Ward 9 (2026-08-03)

Ward 9's dry public paths away from the canal front accumulate plastic and household litter through the week with no simple tracking system, and cleanup requests to the ward go unanswered without evidence. Standard: UN-Habitat community sanitation monitoring guidance; SDG 11.6 (reduce the environmental impact of cities). Proof: Litter count log + hotspot photos Method (UN-Habitat community sanitation monitoring guidance; SDG 11.6 (reduce the environmental impact of cities).): 1. Walk the fixed dry-path route through the residential blocks. 2. Count and categorize visible litter items along the route. 3. Photograph three representative litter hotspots. 4. Log the total count and hotspot locations. 5. Submit the count as the week's transect record. Done when: litter count by category; 3 hotspot photos; GPS coordinates; route confirmed dry public path

Pay

$120 proposed

This packet is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price and not money waiting in escrow. If a buyer funds it, approved proof settles that price onchain. If nobody funds it, approved proof earns provable credit toward the work instead of cash. You see which before you claim, never after.

Proof

Litter count log + hotspot photos

This is exactly what gets it approved. Nothing settles without it.

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it. Typically 30–60 minutes. Method of record: Community-coordination hazard survey (documentation + coordination only; severity-tagged)

Bring

• GPS phone
• camera
• hi-vis vest
• severity-tag reference (minor|moderate|severe|critical)

Steps

1. 1. Walk the corridor from a safe path; record a GPS waypoint at each hazard.
2. 2. Photograph each hazard.
3. 3. Classify the hazard type and assign a severity tag (minor|moderate|severe|critical).
4. 4. Name the responsible handoff target (BID / city agency / utility).
5. 5. Enter each hazard's type, severity, GPS, photo, and handoff target into the proof record; sign.

If it does not match the plan

• NEVER perform repair or enter the roadway/public right-of-way -> documentation and coordination only.
• Any severity:critical (e.g., live downed wire, open utility vault) -> flag immediately to the responsible agency; keep clear.

What counts as done

• litter count by category
• 3 hotspot photos
• GPS coordinates
• route confirmed dry public path

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.

The standard this serves

Civic Safety Reporting. Civic safety is the craft of noticing for your neighbors: the burned-out light over a dark corner, the sidewalk lip waiting to trip someone, the overgrown hedge hiding a crosswalk. This standard is documentation and coordination only, no repairs: see the hazard clearly, grade how serious it is, record it with a photo and a place, and route it to the people with the authority to fix it. Mastery looks like a neighborhood where problems are found while they are still small. This packet is one clear-eyed report, and one clear report is how every fix begins.
