A pair of trash cans to return to Fourth Avenue
Now that the trial run of trash can-free intersections alongFourth Avenue has ended, Bay Ridge residents have one question forthe Department of Sanitation (DOS): What happens now?
According to two DOS representatives who spoke to CommunityBoard 10 members and local residents during an EnvironmentalCommittee meeting on June 16, Bay Ridge will remain basket-free -sort of.
We’ll be placing two baskets at [the intersection of] 69thStreet and Fourth Avenue, but they will be high-end baskets, with anarrow top to prevent large bags from fitting, said Deputy ChiefMyron Priester to the assembled residents, including committeechair Gregory Ahl – a staunch supporter of the can-the-cans idea tokeep streets clean.
