Port St. Lucie residents who have been dealing with months of waste collection issues could soon see some money headed their way.
FCC is to replace Waste Pro in September. Rates will increase nearly 50% and weekly pickups will be cut in half.
About 85% of Waste Pro's Monday garbage routes were collected on time, and roughly 25% of Tuesday's routes were picked up on time.
The city manager, solid waste project manager and deputy city attorney will be online answering questions starting at 5:30 p.m.
If Waste Pro fails to collect garbage as required, the City has the option of seeking a finding of contempt against Waste Pro for disobeying the Judge’s order.
