Isn't that town a model for privatization of traditional govt roles, duties?


That's what I thought too. Sounds like they need to make sure their next contract with the garbage company has a "no collections before 7 a.m." clause in it.

And you know these are the same people who would bitch when the truck is doing pickups during rush hour and blocking traffic.

ETA: Just read the above post...I didn't realize that's how it worked with each house privately contracting different companies.

Yep. It also works that way in the city of Milton (about 20 min north of Sandy Springs). I lived there for about a year.

They incorporated after Sandy Springs and I think tried to model themselves after them in certain ways. They do trash pickup the same way, but there is a list of "approved haulers". Even then, we had like three different haulers coming through our neighborhood each week. You kind of get tired of seeing trash cans out at the curb every other day when you go for a walk

I was so glad to move back to Gwinnett county. Sometimes it's nice when you're told who/when/where and it simply goes on the property tax bill
