These plastic bags <br />and other non-recyclable items damage the <br />the machinery, which costs Recology to fix and need to raise the rates!! FINE & PUNISH <br />them not all of us who are responsible! <br />Is the City of Redwood City willing to allow three neighbors to have ONE -64 gallon can <br />instead of our THREE - 20 gallon cans?? <br />It would save $$$ money for us and we will still have room in our can!!! <br />Neighbor #1 = 2 adults, <br />Neighbor #2 = 2 adults & <br />us, Neighbor #3 has 4 adults! <br />Please consider our idea of neighborhood cooperation!! <br />Merrily Robinson <br />952 Ruby St <br />650766-2332
