West York hikes trash fee for second time in three months
York Dispatch
The West York Borough Council voted 4-3 Monday to increase the quarterly trash fee by $10, bringing the fee to $95 per quarter for each unit.
The same motion failed 4-3 at the previous council meeting, but council member Mildred Tavarez, who voted against the increase at the March 1 meeting, was absent Monday, and Mayor Bruce Vick broke the 3-3 tie in favor of the increase.
"I understand what everybody’s talking about, I truly do," Vick said in reference to the objections. "But again, we can’t just keep pulling money out of nowhere to pay bills."
