Years ago there used to be a city trash bin on this corner. It would be nice to have the trash bin again, just to keep the street clean. I have observed people discarding trash from their cars onto the street in front of Deja Brew, even though they could have thrown it away in the shop or in the bins outside the shop. I walk my dogs past Deja Brew all the time without stopping in and wouldn't think of discarding the poop in their bins.

I walk my dog in the neighborhood all of the time. Since I am a responsible dog owner, I pick up her poop and bring it home to dispose of in MY trash receptacle. Why should Deja Brew have to provide trash bin?????

Never stated Deja Brew should provide the trash can.... I'm actually saying the opposite. Please read the post before closing it.

There is a trash can on the corner of Edgewood + Central where no businesses operate retail. There is also a trash can outside of Westville Quality Market I'm assuming for neighborhood convenience.

I don't think it's that odd to request a trash can in an area where clearly the owner is having a problem. There is also a school right across the street that I assume accumulates trash. If the city wants to close the issue and deny it, go ahead.

To adak: No, it was benhv who thinks Deja Brew should provide the trashcan.
I completely agree with you.

Adak,
I don't think it is an unreasonable request. I just know that trash pickup has ongoing costs and the bins cost about $1,000. It's a lot cheaper for the private business to provide the receptacle if they are already paying a private hauler.

BB = BenHV btw. I have an admin login on my desktop.

Closing the issue, since I don't really care anymore.
