Reinstating spring cleanup in the city will cost an estimated 380 thousand dollars next year. That word being delivered in response to a request from Common Council last month about what it would take to bring it back.
The head of Municipal Operations, Kevin Rice is not staking out a position one way or the other.
He does say if Council decides to go with it, Rice is recommending it be held later in the year.
Council is also being told there have been savings this year in solid waste management and even though spring cleanup was popular, some homeowners abused the programme.
