REHOBOTH TRASH PROBLEMS
1968
Friday, January 12, 1968
Rehoboth Commissioners had on their agenda refuse
collection problems since
the city, last summer, was told by state officials to curtail
burning at the town dump
and told the town to expect stricter regulations on the dump.
The city has been
negotiating for property between Lewes and Rehoboth to replace the
dump located near the canal
on Delaware 14.
The commissioners have been
told that every effort should be made to have the problem
solved before the 1968
summer crowds arrive at the beach.
A representative of the
St. Regis Paper Company gave a presentation of a paper refuge sack
system to collect household
garbage and trash and told of several communities which require
the use of a large paper
sack instead of the metal trash cans for curbside pickups.
