Great News on Solid Waste Fees

You may recall that the new single stream trash and recycling process began in July 2010. The new system has been such a success that the purchase of the new totters which was projected to be done over 5 years is actually proposed to be done now.

The totters can be paid off now accompanied by a reduction in the fee from $220 to 204.

Bulk items currently picked up for no charge but paid for by all (via the quarterly fee) will now be paid for by the individuals scheduling the bulk items for pickup at $10 per item.

This is scheduled for the Town Council agenda on Wed March 7, 2012.

A copy of the significant portion of Town Administrator Jeff Nutting's letter to the Council outlining this proposal is attached:
