Ballot proposal comes with economic implications for single-family homeowners and the city, especially given that collection costs are expected to grow
The action could unravel a 103-year-old city policy guaranteeing free trash pickup for most people living in single-family homes. Businesses and most condos and apartments already pay private haulers to pick up their trash..
Why should single-family city dwellers have free pickup while the apartment renters, condo owners and others need to pay for services? The city budget probably needs the help, but all savings should be directed at cleaning up other problems like old water and sewer lines. Private sector competition would likely bring down costs, and I hear the industry is “picking up!”Single-family homeowners already pay for trash services with their property taxes.
