<div>Just a quick FYI, any person who is unable through a legitimate disability to move their trash to the street will, as was previously the case, have it picked up from their back yard. We have a list of such individuals and it is part of the contract that this service will continue. </div>

<div>Best wishes,</div>

<div>Does anyone remember back in the good ol' days (1970) when the town furnished each household with a metal trash can stand. In this stand was placed a <u>paper bag</u> which was filled with trash. The public works people would walk down your driveway, yeah its true, and pick up the paper bag and haul it away to the trash truck. The town also furnished the paper bags. All included in our taxes which were quite low back then. We had fewer workers, trucks, staff then too. It was wonderful not to have to worry about totting trash cans out to the curb and actually made the town look better since there were never any containers lining the streets waiting for people to come home from work or getting out on the wrong day. Then came the progress where we were instructed to haul our own bags out to the street. Saving time and money here. So, that wasn't so bad we got used to it. Then came more progress.....those bags were getting messed up by the dogs and the birds and trash was getting all over so now we would be required to get a container which had to meet specific specifications and haul that out to the street. OK, we did that. Now we have progress again. I can't wait to see what 2020 brings for us! Imagine.....no gas, so we have to wheel those containers to the dump. I can see the little old lady (that would be me) struggling down the East West Highway with my container. I'm smiling happy I'm still here to witness the progress!</div>
