Does this mean...
* Is it a fact the Mayor has promised "a 2007 Housing Authority Contract" to the current company collecting New Albany garbage?
* Why does the Mayor have a hand in this?
* Is it true the current company is still using New Albany equipment and City building? Do they not own the necessary equipment to do the job?
* Why is it such a "big secret" as to who the "ghost" backers are of this business arrangement between New Albany and the current Waste Disposal Company?
Original contract was with - City of New Albany & Clark-Floyd Landfill, L.L.C. ECO-Tech
Southern Indiana Waste Systems services the City of New Albany customers.
Freedom Of Speech would like to ask if the City of New Albany is picking up The Housing Authority garbage now, why is the Housing Authority taking bids?
Will the New Albany Housing Authority still pay/owe an outstanding garbage collection bill to the city?
So many questions and not enough answers!
Could the old adage "If it AIN'T BROKE - don't fix it" be applied to this situation?
