BRONSON, MI (WTVB) – The Bronson City Council approved a five year contract extension with Republic Services on Monday night for trash, recycling and bulk item pickup in the City on Bronson.
City Manager Brandon Mersman says for a longer term extension, Republic Services was willing to lower the monthly charge per home from the current rate of $17.39 to $15.91 for the first year of the contract.
The rate would then increase three percent annually which amounts to, on average, a 50 cent increase each year.
Mersman points out that under the proposed contract it would be year four until the current rate of $17.39 would be in place.
