Honorable F. Paul Goodland, Mayor
and Members of the City Council
of the City of Ames, Iowa
Re: Revision to Refuse Collection Regulation
Dear Mayor Goodland and Council Members:
The present Section 10.7 requires that refuse be set out for collection
"in baskets or boxes not larger than one bushel . . . provided with
handles."
The revision will allow the use of trash bags or any other container
that can be lifted by the people employed for collection.
This change does not affect the requirement of Section 10.3 that
"garbage" as distinguished from "refuse" but set out only in closed
water tight containers.
Respectfully submitted,
John R. Klaus
