Rotorua's inner city is set to be scrubbed, brushed, water-blasted and polished tomorrow as building owners, business operators and staff roll up their sleeves to take part in the city's second Scrub Rotorua Day.
Inner City Focus Group spokesman and city retailer Mike Steiner is again leading the project .
"I was delighted with Scrub Rotorua Day's outstanding success last year and we thought it should become an annual event. It's a great opportunity for city business people to get out there alongside their neighbours, tidy up their patch and show real pride in our beautiful city," he said.
As revitalisation of the inner city is a key goal in the community's Rotorua 2030 vision, the Rotorua District Council is getting behind the Inner Focus Group initiative to spruce up the city.
Council staff will be offering members of the public the chance to brighten up Tutanekai St by helping replant flower boxes, and will be installing new Holmes Group-sponsored seating.
