Tilton will start pay-as-you-throw on September 3 By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
TILTON — The Board of Selectmen last night decided to begin the “Pay-As-YouThrow” trash collection program on September 3, then met with more than two dozen residents to address their questions about the operation of the program only to find that some were unaware of the initiative and others opposed to it, while a few had questions.
Pat Consentino, who chairs the Selectboard, said that the board decided earlier during its regularly scheduled meeting to start the program on September 3 and that postcards announcing the start date would be mailed either to all taxpayers or postal customers shortly. She said there would be a two week grace period before the requirement that all trash be contained in a specially marked purple bag purchased at local stores was strictly enforced.
Selectmen Joe Jesseman, who serves on the Recycling Committee, said that he was going to ask storeowners to begin selling the bags tomorrow. He said that 15 gallon bags will be sold for $1 in lots of 10 and 33 gallon bags for $1.50 in lots of five. Bags will be available at Hannaford, The Store, Bryant & Lawrence Hardware, Smoke ‘N Barley, Walgreens and the Winnisquam Market and Deli. Soon, Jesseman said, see TiLTON page 8
