Trappe amends trash-placement rules, reopens public hearing through Nov. 5
Summary
The Trappe Town Council amended Ordinance 6-2025 to set trash set-out no earlier than 2:00 p.m. the day before collection and require containers be removed by 8:00 p.m. on collection day; the council reopened the public hearing and will accept comments through Nov. 5.
The Trappe Town Council voted Oct. 1 to amend Ordinance 6-2025, changing when residents may place refuse at the curb. Commissioner Brian Schmidt moved to require that “trash be placed no earlier than 2:00 p.m. on the day prior to collection and trash containers must be removed from the street no later than 8:00 p.m. on collection day,” a motion the council approved unanimously.
President Newnam read an email from Bobby Croswell filed with the records during the earlier public hearing; no one spoke during that hearing. After approving the amendment, Commissioner Walter Chase moved to reopen the public hearing so the council can accept additional public comment through the Nov. 5 council meeting. Commissioner Michael Sullivan seconded the motion, which passed unanimously. The council will consider submitted comments at its Nov. 5 meeting before finalizing the ordinance.
