Diane Hanire was supported'in a bid on Mon- day to have a staff report prepared as to contracting garbage pick-up in the Orono Estates which would be in- cluded along with the Orono, Village contract. Hamre points out that she has had a number of requests for consideration for contrac- ting garbage pick-up both in the Orono'Estates and in the Village of Newcastle where recently a sizeable increase was instituted by a private contractor. Garbage pick-up in Orono Village has been under a con- tract for a number of years and is tendered every two years. Garbage pick-up in the Orono Estates and Newcastle Village is on an individual basis through a private con- tractor. The Town of Newcastle through Public Works pick-up garbage in the Town of Bowmanville. Counc. Hamre points out that garbage pick-up in Bowmanville costs $61 .00 per year per unit and now $60.00 a year in Newcastle Village. The yearly costs in Orono per unît is soine $43.00. Hamre has called for a staff report considering the Town taking over garbage pick-up ini Orono Estates and Newcastle Village on the same basis as has been set for the Village of Orono. §he points to the exîsting savings in tendering the pick-up rather than having each in- diNiïdual having to deal with make arrangements with a private contractor.
