Billings Council Considers Trash

Q2 reports the Billings City Council heard discussion Monday night on a non-agenda item regarding the possibility of moving all garbage collection from alleyway to curbside after council members said they had heard from residents concerned about the proposal. Public Works Director Dave Mumford said there is no immediate plan to make the change for all customers, but the city is considering the change. Mumford said the city has been changing out many of the larger alley garbage bins to smaller bins that can be rolled to curbside, but only in areas where garbage trucks have difficulty navigating.
