FROM: Public Works Committee

Re: Garbage Collection - Information Mailer
to All Residents

The City has authorized several changes to residential
garbage pickup during the past winter. These include closure
of the Welcher Dump and elimination of cleanup week. As part
of our cost cutting efficiencies, it is also desireable to
reorganize the pickup routes so that all trucks work ina
concentrated area on any given day of the week.

To provide this information to the residents, the
City Engineer has prepared a draft notice which can be sent
out to all residents. A copy of the draft is attached. The
actual notice to be sent out, if approved by Council, will be
type set and laid out in a more attractive format by a local
printer for mailing to all residents by third class mail.

The cost of type setting and printing 9,300 copies
for general distribution to all householders is $560.00.
Postage at 4.8¢ per delivery comes to $446.00. The total of
$1,000.00 is available in the currently approved refuse coll-
ection budget.

The Committee recommends that this mailer be sent out
to all households.

Respectfully submitted,

F.E. Peters, P, Eng.,
FEP/vw City Engineer.
