CITIZEN COMMENTS
Nancy Saxton, 164 South 900 East, said she had lived at this address for 10 years. She said at least once a month she had to run outside between 5:00 a.m. and 6:50 a.m. because private garbage companies were picking up garbage before 7:00 a.m. She said her neighborhood had lots of apartment buildings, medical buildings, and office complexes. She said she felt she had done more than her part to try and make the companies aware of City ordinance. She said her understanding of the ordinance was that garbage pickup could not start before 7:00 a.m. She said garbage trucks were not even supposed to be within City limits until 7:00 a.m.
Ms. Saxton said she wanted the City to send a letter to the private garbage companies reminding them of the 7:00 a.m. ordinance. She said something needed to be done as far as enforcement. She said if there was a complaint by a citizen, then the City should be notified and a letter sent to the company violating the ordinance. Councilmember Seed said the letter should come from the Administration.
Roger Cutler, City Attorney, said this was not an unusual problem. He said most of the complaints were over dumpsters being dumped. He said to file a complaint with the Prosecutor's Office, the only information needed was the license plate number of the truck, the name of the company on the truck, and when the violation occurred. He said a citizen could file a complaint. He said the company's license could be revoked or criminal charges could be filed.
