Here is the text of WTHI’s report on General Ordinance 5, 2007 from last night’s broadcast:
Council ‘Talks Trash’
| Dated: 04/03/2007 22:30:32 | Updated: 04/04/2007 10:18:15 |
| The Terre Haute City Council discusses taking out the trash.At Tuesday night‘s “Sunshine Meeting”, councilman Todd Nation presented an ordinance to regulate the way you handle your garbage.The plan would require putting garbage in a can and fastening the lid.
It seems simple enough, but Nation says it could help the city’s trash problem and possibly cut down on crows and stray animals. “It seems logical that every household should have a trash can with a lid and put their garbage in it. We’re going to try and get that into the code,“ says Nation. The council will vote on the trash ordinance at the next meeting, Thursday, April 12th. |

1I think this is a great idea, it will help with the stray animals and the crow problem. Plus it will eliminate alot of the trash blowing around the streets. Maybe Terre Haute will actually start to look like it is a level above.
