PITTSBURG —
Dear editor:
Andrew Nash’s account in your Sept. 22 edition about Pittsburg’s trash hauling issue is indeed commendable. The scope of the story leaves one to conclude that a few choice instances of trash nuisance were blown into a citywide calamity.
The dialogue itself is not informative, but buried in the 85 column inches of newsprint is city manager Daron Hall’s observation that, “My job is to command the city.”
“Command” is an ugly word among the civilian population, and one wonders what it has to do with collecting trash.
I live outside the city limits, and I am totally happy with my family trash service of many years. But I use Pittsburg’s water service, and rumors include talk about new trash haulers whose fees would be tied to monthly water bills, like Pittsburg’s sewer charges.
At the moment, the plan seems to be to select planners to come up with a plan.
Sincerely,
William Duffy
