A student is writing a letter to the local center of government. Read the draft of the student's letter and complete the task that follows.

Last week, our school worked on the "Adopt a Highway" project on County Highway 247, where several of us students picked up trash on the side of the road. When we were done, I noticed that the next several miles of highway were littered with tons of garbage. I believe that the city could expand this project by allowing people to perform community service to pay down fines and tickets by picking up trash. This would help to beautify the highway that leads into the next town, and perhaps from there, other people will work to beautify the rest of the state. Please consider allowing people to perform community service by picking up the trash that litters County Highway 287. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.
