Yaupon residents will decide level of trash service By Richard Nubel Municipal Editor As Brunswick County and its 18 municipalities struggle to devise a con solidated solid waste management program, Yaupon Beach commissioners will invite town residents and properly owners to build their own refuse program for the year to begin July I * Commissioners May II will condilt a public hearing at Town Hall to allow residents and property owners to decide just how much they want the town to spend on solid waste removal this year and just what solid waste services they want to pay for. Under terms of a contract between Brunswick County, towns and cities in the county, and Waste Industries Inc., a private carting service, each homeowner in Brunswick County, including its towns, will be afforded once-weekly curbside refuse collection beginning in July. But, Yaupon Beach residents can opt to have the town pay for other ser vices, including curbside collection ofrecyclabl.es and curbside collection of bagged and bundled \ard debris. ■ Commissioners say it will be up to residents of the town whether or not Yaupon Beach spends an additional $2.50 per household per month for recycling or another 80 cents per household monthly for yard debris col lection. “This is the first time we’ ve done anything like this,” town clerk Nancy Wilson said this week. “We’re going to let the citizens tell us whether or not to include this in our budget for next year.” Any solid waste program for which citizens opt will be paid for from the town’s general fund. There will be no separate billing of homes. While commissioners will let the citizens decide on recycling and yard debris, the governing board itself still has at least one more decision to make with regard to solid waste collection. Still undecided is whether a second weekly garbage collection will be necessary in areas of town fre quented by tourists. “While everybody will get a once-weekly pickup from Brunswick County, we realize there are rentals out there,” Ms. Wilson said. “We have not yet decided if we will go with a second pick-up for rentals only. If we do decide on a second pick-up tor first and second rows, it will either be paid for by the accommodations tax, which is generated by tourists, or owners will be asked to contract directly with Waste Industries.” County Democrats to hold convention Brunswick County Democrats will gather for their annual conven tion at 1 p.m. Saturday, April 18, at party headquarters on old U. S. 17, across from Brunswick Community College. All Democrats arc invited to attend. Richard Moore, North Carolina Secretary of Crime Control and Public Safety, will be the guest speaker. Moore is a former U. S. Attorney and member of the state H0lise of Representatives. • Curious as to how much your property is worth? •Thinking of selling?
