Cedar Rapids Debates 100 Percent Trash Pickup Plan
Cedar Rapids Mayor Jim Meaghan said 100 percent trash pickup could be funded if a majority supports it and residents accept a small tax increase. The plan adds 4 trucks and 12 workers, costs about 107000 initially, and would raise the levy by eight tenths of a mill with ongoing payroll costs. The program would combine rubbish with garbage in weekly pickups and aim to curb fires and litter while offering cheaper, broader service than private hauling.
