High-rise robbery City's garbage fees will hammer condos

By SUE-ANN LEVY, TORONTO SUN

Two weeks ago -- on Canada Day to be exact -- the new socialist garbage fee meter, a.k.a. waste reduction levy, turned on with little fanfare, catching most apartment and condo dwellers completely by surprise.

The city did not provide any in-unit blue boxes or soft-type bags to tenants and condo owners to ease the collection of recyclable materials, as had been promised.

The request for proposals for those 500,000 containers or soft-type bags will be issued next month, with the 12-month rollout expected to start in November, says Rob Orpin, the city's director of collections.

As for the green bin (kitchen catcher), that rollout is also expected to start in November -- provided that processing capacity for the material is found. "We're still working on it," Orpin said late last week.

About the only thing officials did do was put some propaganda on the city's website about the dire need to divert more, along with suggested materials on what residents can put in their blue boxes.
