The Bourbon Town Board signed a five-year contract a few months ago with Republic Services for recycling pickup. The contract was a renewal of a former contract. Although the details of what prompted a request presented to the Bourbon Council to discontinue weekly pickup services and go to a pickup every other week were not elaborated on, the council voted 2-0 to table the request.
Attorney Tony Wagner indicated that there were other considerations. Wagner said, “I’m not sure we can modify (contract) mid-stream.” By tabling the request, Wagner said it would give an opportunity for public feedback.
