Homeless camps generated so much debris around a western Tampa church that cleanup crews drawn from several groups are taking days to collect it all.
�
The work is expected to wrap up today at the First Reformed Church, Hillsborough Avenue and Webb Road.
�
Last month, crews hauled off more than 3,000 pounds of mattresses, televisions, shopping carts, tarps and carpet.
�
Those helping church members in the effort include the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office Patrol District 3, Hillsborough County government and the Town and Country Youth Council.
