Re: Paper Boxes Throughout the City

Several complaints have been received recently regarding the three major papers
Namely the Vancouver Sun, Province and the Columbian, with respect to the untidy
conditions being left in and around the delivery boxes in different areas of the
City. I have very recently phoned the Circulation Managers, and asked tneir co-
operation in keeping the area surrounding the boxes free of litter, and they
assure me of their co-operation, however this will last for a couple of weeks
and the same thing will again happen. I have asked Mr. Kim when complaints are
phoned in to City Hall to get the parks crew to clern up the litter, which is
done, but I do not think it is the City's responsibility to keep cleaning up
around these boxes. (Wires, string and papers).

Suggestion: The Paper boxes could be left in the yard of the delivery boy,
or the City could ask the paper Companies responsible to have
the boxes removed.
