I recently attempted to use the Large Item Pickup program for the first time. I now understand (but despise) why so many people are illegally dumping their garbage in and around Delta.
The Spring Cleanup program was taken from the community without any real recompense (read the origins of the Spring Cleanup program to understand that), and we have had this new program 'dumped' on us. The list of what the contractor won't pick up is so large, it makes the program basically unusable.
Maybe that was the plan all along. Another example of the Municipality doing things ‘to’ citizens, rather than ‘for’ citizens.
