“Outstanding service. They were extremely careful delivering the extra large container into our driveway.” -- A. L. GARNER
Belmont due to the cars parked on residential streets, many of which belong to commuters. Belmont does not have an ordinance like Watertown that prohibits more than two hour parking on residential streets, she added.“A lot of people are going to be unhappy. The same people you’ll be asking to approve very large debt exclusions and possibly another operating override in the near future. I’d be very concerned about that,” said Sarno.Pleas for selectmen to support PAYTMike Crowley, Precinct 8 Town Meeting member, said he thinks a smaller container is better for automated collection.“A larger container is an incentive to throw out more,” he said.He also said bag fees are not a tax.“There’s a way to structure this so the average household gets something back every year. Money could be credited to their electric bills,” he said.Jennifer Marusiak, Precinct 6 Town Meeting member said she is in favor of PAYT.“We seem to have this sense that we are entitled to generage as much garbage as we want,” she said. “The world has changed. It’s not 1990 and we have to do what’s right for our kids.”Belmont resident Mark Davis said PAYT has the added benefit of reducing the amount of trash that is burned and puts carbon into the atmosphere.“We meter water and electricity. Why wouldn’t we meter garbage,” said Claus Becker, Precinct 5 Town Meeting member. (Wicked Local Belmont)
