City Considers New User Pay Garbage Collection System

Common Council is getting a look at the price associated with switching to a user pay system for residential solid waste. Commissioner of Municipal Operations Paul Groody says as it looks right now every resident will pay $173.52 for services, which depending on the value of your home could be more or less than you are currently paying.

Groody says the benefits of a user pay system would be it would put the responsibilty of how much you pay directly on the shoulders of those creating waste.
