Aaaaaaannnnnnouncing.... the aaaaaaaaaamazing new TRASH CAN at Oak and Baker!

it was a media frenzy! champagne was spilled! fireworks went off! the crowd roared!

well, actually, I got there and it was already done and no DPW people were around. Ah well. I'm just really happy it got done.

As I mentioned in my weekly email (sign up!) I've been working on the trash and litter problem in this area for quite a long time, and it took me a while to figure out who in the DPW system to work with to get this done. Once I did, however, it was easy to convince them that it was a good idea to have a trash can were people walk and want to throw things away. I also made sure that this be a *move* not an addition, so that there's no extra cost to the city.

One giant step for smart thinking, one smaller step for people trying to throw things away
