The 32-year trash contract expires on June 30, 2012, and so does the subsidy that kept rates from increasing for so many years. And after a four-year study, a more cost-effective trash system has been approved. One with a proven track record in many other cities our size. This new service is estimated to save Tulsa over $1 million per year for the next 10 years and will go into effect later this year. With the new plan, you'll also have the opportunity to choose the pricing plan and service that best fits you and your family's needs. One day a week? Sure. Two days a week? Why not. Recycling? It's in the plan, but you only participate if you choose to. There are other choices, too, like backyard service. Bottom line is, you pick the plan and price with basic service starting at $12.52 per month that best fits you. |
