Although it certainly won’t preclude complaints going forward, the epic saga of Los Altos Hills’ garbage collection contract seems to have concluded – officially, at least. City Manager Carl Cahill, at the Hills’ Feb. 18 city council meeting, announced the end of attempts to convince San Jose-based GreenWaste Recovery to provide adjustments lowering residents’ monthly rates.
“We’re not getting anywhere with GreenWaste,” Cahill said.
Yes, with prodding, GreenWaste did provide four alternative rate structures, but each made the town’s 15-year contract with the company even more expensive for residents, Cahill said.
