Councilman McDonald was concerned about the. number of elderly people not accumulat- ing enough trash to fill the standard can picked up weekly. He wondered whether there was provision for twice-a-month collection. Finance Director answered that the Garbage Board felt there was not enough demand to set a rate for that type collection. He pointed out the rate set for once-a-month pickup. Manager added ~ that the Garbage Board probably would .be willing to consider setting a biweekly rate for pickup if the Council so desired.
