Steve Smith of PDS Waste has decided to retire from Saturday pickup at the recycling drop-off.  Starting at the next recycling date on Saturday November 9^th , trash collection will be done by Moose Rubbish instead of PDS Waste.  This will result in a small increase in trash collection rates and expanded services.  The price charged for bags is based somewhat on weight but in general it will cost $5.00 for 30 to 45 gallon bags and $3.00 for 13 to 20 gallon bags.  In addition, Moose will except food scraps at $1.00 per pail and $2.00 and up for yard waste depending on the amount (a bag of leaves would be $2.00).

Thank you to all the community members who attended the initial public outreach meeting that took place on September 26^th.  In addition to having an opportunity to meet with Bellwether Architects (BA), the architects of the new Community Center, there was a lively and productive question and answer session. In addition to oral feedback, any written responses to questions provided by BA about the design, layout and the community’s aspirations for the new building were received.  The building committee has read all of these responses and heard the community’s concerns that the building be cost efficient, energy efficient, and that it should have historically appropriate architecture. They also heard comments that it should be filled with natural light, should maximize advantages of the site, and should be “inspirational.” Continue reading “Building Committee Update”
