I was at the meeting and since when does a company that does business <br />in the city, tell the city what it is going to do? oh boy - - -a new recycling bin for a <br />higher monthly charge - - -my old ones are in great shape. And ghat about <br />competion.7 <br />I wrote to you all a couple of creeks ago with the following paragraph. And after <br />the meeting, it still holds logic. <br />"And on the subject of curbside recycling - -- -next time the council has the <br />opportunity to re- negotiate the contract - -- -lets change it so that we (Roseville) get <br />something hack. The companies are making a tidy profit and Roseville and its <br />residents are getting nothing. I recycle my aluminum cans, and when I get 3 very <br />large garbage vans full, I take them in, seldom, have I ever received less that $30 <br />dollars for those. Multiply that by the volume that the recycle company turns in{ <br />and you can see we are missing out on money that should he either returned to <br />those that recycle or to the city itself." <br />Bruce N.
