I have family in Charles Village and for the 3rd time now the recycling trucks have left the very large paper bag behind. The bag--which positively cannot be missed--had been placed in the corner of 33rd and Guilford, where the city used to pick it up.
After the second time the bag was left behind, I called 311. I went a couple of rounds with the operator who told me that the bag needed to be placed in the alley, adding that since the 1-1 change, all recycling was to be placed in the same place as the regular trash. The city managed to respond and pick up the bag of recycling the second time--I am sure only because I told them I would call Mary Pat's office, and Channel 2. Lo and behold, it was left behind just last week, once again. Is it that difficult for city employees to grab a bag that is clearly filled with recycling and take it? Someone kindly offer some advise that will make this seemingly very simple task even more simple--we are committed to easing the devastation to the environment, but the employees of "Charm City" are not making it easy. Thanks so much. Haydee M. Rodriguez
