    I know it wouldn't be popular, but one of the options to address the increase in waste fees would be to get rid of the bulk waste program. I know that all citizens benefit from having the items removed from their neighborhoods, but many residents never use the service for their bulk waste, yet they pay for it. Many residents are still putting the waste in the gutter, resulting in water pollution. Much of the bulk waste could be put into the regular garbage cans throughout the year. The staff hours and equipment for bulk waste pickup could be used for other important needs in Sandy. I believe that I have heard that the responsible department spends half its year on bulk waste pick-up.
