Resident asks Sherrill commission about smaller garbage cans for older residents
Summary
A resident requested the city allow smaller garbage containers for elderly or single residents who find large cans difficult to move; the commission said staff would follow up and confirmed small donors are accepted for the pool campaign.
Resident Vicky Andrews asked during public comment whether single, older or widowed residents could request smaller garbage containers because large cans can be difficult to move, especially in winter. She said residents and her husband had raised the concern; commissioners acknowledged the request and indicated staff would look into options.
Andrews also asked whether people could donate less than $1,000 to the pool fundraising campaign. Commissioners and staff confirmed donations under $1,000 are accepted and explained recognition would be at different levels depending on the amount.
