Trash Petition

As many Rockville residents know full well, the collection of trash has been a Major Political Issue for months now. There are competing proposals for maintaining the current twice-per-week collection or shifting to a once-per-week system. The Council >recently chose to stick with twice-per-week. Some observers say the majority did this in response to a vocal minority who just don’t want change.

A group called “RockTrash.Org” has mounted a petition campaign in response. Rockville Living has joined in to help and is encouraging people to sign a petition stating that they prefer once-per-week pickup. More details are at their website.

As trash is inexplicably a political — and campaign — issue, Rockville Central will try its hardest to have no opinion on the issue.

    Thanks for the link, Brad. It’s >me who thinks we should be moving to once-a-week pickup, though, not Rockville Living (a poor brainless website with no opinions of its own). I’m glad to see there are many others who feel the same. Kudos to Art S and the residents of Hungerford & Monument Park neighborhoods who’ve spoken up and kept the issue alive.
