The Town Council is considering reducing residential trash collection from twice per week to once per week. Once per week trash collection is expected to reduce the quarterly charge by almost $7.00. Trash trucks are one of the heaviest vehicles that regularly travel town streets. Reducing the number of times they drive a collection route would decrease wear and tear on those streets. Another significant benefit is reducing the number of times the trucks may encounter children playing in neighborhoods. Recyclables will still be collected once per week, but it is anticipated that a change to once per week trash collection will increase recycling participation. Before making a final decision, the Council would like input from residents and has posted a questionnaire below. Please take the survey to provide input on this issue.
