Single-hauler waste contract

Criticized missing kick-out flashing on new homes along Portage Road and Oakland Drive, citing thousands in water damage, and blasted the city's handling of the Waste Management single-hauler meeting.

Supports keeping his right to choose his trash hauler and has used Best Way for over 20 years; says the council ignored residents and predicts blowback at the May 5 election.

Backed the council's single-hauler decision, saying all three haulers had a fair chance to bid and Best Way's bid came in about 21% higher than Waste Management's; called the 'choice' framing a misdirection.
