A major decision by common council is being put on hold until a special meeting can be set up. Council plans to meet with representatives from the Fundy Solid Waste Commission to discuss the merits of a user pay system for garbage pick up. Councillor Chris Titus says before a meeting is scheduled, council needs to indicate to the solid waste commission what direction the city is planning to take.
The possible user pay system suggests residents will be billed for garbage removal on their water utility bill and will possibly be provided 5 free bags per year to be used during heavy refuse times like Christmas.
