Swanson, President of Eugene:Garbage Board, requesting that the Council give publicity to the fact that the ban on open burning will not be lifted, and that tne City is not going to provide free' pick-up. Garbage haulers have offered to help with the problem by picking up such refuse if it is containerized and placed in a designated location. Councilman Mohr agreed with Mr. Swanson, but said the Council has not resolved 'on whether the City will or will not pay for this pick-up. The Council gave no warning that this ban would be imposed, and may have placed a substantial burden on residents. In answer to Mrs. Hayward's question, Mr. Swanson said the least expensive way to handle pickup would be to containerize leaves and branches and place where garbage hauler des- e ignated. Charges on additional pickups will be minimum. Mrs. Beal expressed doubts of ability of some residents to pay for such garbage service. Some on social security have no garbage pickup at all. Mr. Swanson said some garbage haulers do not charge those on social security for pickup. In answer to a question from Mrs. Wilmot, the Manager said when a great accumulation of I leaves and weeds occurs on a residents property, and a complaint is received, the rodent control officer contacts the property owner and makes arrangements for him to take care of the problem.
