FlintTalk.com Forum Index > Political Talk Topic: New trash pickup schedule

Author    Post   Dave Starr F L I N T O I D http://www.cityofflint.com/sanitation/trashcollectionblue.pdf The red zone brochure is the same except for the color. Note the areas not colored; are they still on a weekly schedule, or no pickup at all? Since the pickups are cut in half, they should double the amount you can put out each week. _________________ I used to care, but I take a pill for that now. Pushing buttons sure can be fun.

Mon Mar 22, 2010 8:43 pm  Dave Starr F L I N T O I D If trash collection is cut in half, shouldn't the millage be cut as well? Or do the "savings" go to pay more cronies? _________________ I used to care, but I take a pill for that now. Pushing buttons sure can be fun.

That may have been done to prevent people from the injuries that had been occurring on the job. The new trucks Williamson bought were also designed to reduce certain injuries. Tue Mar 23, 2010 7:48 am  Dave Starr F L I N T O I D I rode one of the trucks for a few hours during a neighborhood cleanup once. It's not an easy job. Incidentally, my partner on the truck was Dale Weighill. He came to our 5th ward neighborhood to help out. _________________ I used to care, but I take a pill for that now.

Those pesky contracts sure do hamper our glorious leader, don't they? _________________ I used to care, but I take a pill for that now. Pushing buttons sure can be fun.
