The Chamber of Commerce will be starting a community clean-up initiative and we are inviting the citizens to join us in the effort. Our plan is to remove abandoned, dangerous, or condemned structures around town. We have assembled a group of volunteers who are willing to put forth their time, machinery, and effort to get this endeavor started. Now we are reaching out to the community for additional guidance, support, concerns, insight, and of course, manpower to further help us reach the goal of a cleaner, nicer, more welcoming community.
Things needed from the community: ideas of properties needing attention; permission from property owners; machine and labor commitments What the chamber has completed as of now: verbal commitments from a handful of volunteers offering equipment and time; commitments from owners for several properties to be reformed; a destination for the rubble to be hauled
The chamber does not request any kind of title transfer or fee to be paid, but of course donations are accepted and would be used for fuel, repairs, etc. Details of clean-up will be worked out with property owners on a case-by-case basis.
We appreciate any feedback and feel free to comment on this post to get the conversation started. You can also reach us at cimarroncountychamber@gmail.com
We want this to stay positive and only intend on creating value for our wonderful community, so please refrain from being negative or disparaging to property owners who need a hand up in this clean-up effort.

We haven’t provided a Beautify Boise City update in awhile so here it is. We have completed 31 of 36 properties that have been signed up. Also, we recently purchased a used dump trailer, thanks to the community’s generous donations, to haul scrap metal to Dalhart and have gotten 5 loads towed away to date. We will gladly accept additional properties if you are a property owner and would like a delapidated building or house removed. We thank you all for the continued support and of course appreciate the time and effort our volunteers put into this project!
