At their meeting on Tuesday, the Washington City Council had a discussion and voted on the City’s new garbage disposal company. Councilperson Elaine Moore gives some background on the change, “‘Johnson County” they pulled their trucks, they had a building here and they pulled out completely. So now everybody comes down, they don’t know our town at all, they come down from North Liberty, and they don’t know our routes.” The council awarded the bid to ABC Disposal, based out of Cedar Rapids. The final contract will be drawn up and approved by the Council at a later meeting. The current City contract with Johnson County Refuse will expire in July.
