搞好房前屋后环境卫生

2016年2月29日,在樱桃沟村召开了赴陕西马嵬驿村和袁农村考察座谈会,找出了自身的差距是游乐景点少、环境卫生差、服务质量差、村民素质和文明程度不高、存在等靠要思想等等,明确了今后要转变等靠要的观念,立即行动起来,搞好房前屋后环境卫生,加大门前三包力度,要提升村民素质,树立服务意识,改变冷漠态度,要有大局意识和诚信意识。

Around the house

Literally it means in front of and behind the house, but the phrase is just typical four-character Chinese writing style. I would just translate it as "around the house".
