Impact analysis
Fully routed, more frequent pickups would cost roughly $1.20 per home per month, but the Council took no action on that idea.
Residents with yard waste piles get faster pickups as the backlog shrinks and daily ticket lists track service.
Residents in areas needing more frequent pickups still wait for call-based service.
