Official calls for extra trash pickups in Midwood
Some neighborhoods in Brooklyn have twice daily pickup on weekdays on their commercial strips, but, in Midwood, there isn’t even one pickup each weekday.
Councilmember David Greenfield held a press conference under the Avenue J overpass on Tuesday, August 13, bringing attention to the issue.
“This is a thriving community like any other in New York City, but the streets are still dirty,” said Greenfield, drawing attention to the excess garbage that lined the streets due to overflowing trash cans.
