Thumbs-down for FM's plan to switch recycling plans
Thanks to regular Road reader Marcia for reminding me the results are in on the Town survey regarding a proposed switch in recycling services.
I'm not surprised, but the results were overwhelmingly against paying more for less service, albeit with larger tubs.

An honorable mention... cool!!! Next, I want to learm HTML so that I can make my font in color when I leave comments! :)
Having lived in Plano for a number of years now I'm always perplexed by the complaints other cities have with recycling and garbage pickup.
In Plano we have garbage pickup once a week and recycling pickup every other week. When we first moved here we had a small green bucket to put recycling in. Then they switched over to the big container on wheels with a divider in the middle to sort the recycling. After a year or so of that, they told us we no longer had sort the stuff.
This system works well and with few complaints. I don't understand why people in other cities are so adverse to this kind of system.
I'm not adverse to recycling. I'm adverse to a HUGE bin taking up space in my garage when the little one works just fine for weekly pick up. The over-sized bin was more than twice the size of what we have now, so even every-other-week pick up with the HUGE bin would be too large.
