Website looks great! Went to the Trash Dist.4 meeting last night. The Tulsa Trash contract will be up for bids in 2012, but TARE need a lot of input for council & state info. So they are having district meetings to get feedback from the public on these main concerns--1)How often should trash pick up be? size of bins? 2) Recycling--bins?, frequency? and 3)Yard waste (same concern). Had some good discussion groups, and some of the best trash programs of other cities were presented. The general consensus seemed to be--
Once a week pick up in the size trash can of your choice that would coincide with you trash cost. Recycling trash can also once a wk. pickup (cost would be the same whether you use it or not), and Yard waste in biodegradable bags with a charge per bag.
Other concerns were mentioned such as large yard waste (i.e.branches) and large boxes, etc. After TARE gets all the info and rough draft ready--there will be time for more public input. They plan to address all issues. Right now only about 3-5% of trash in Tulsa is recycled. We're behind in these areas compared to other cities for sure.
