Petition Waste Management to provide yard waste collection

I'd like to submit a suggestion that MBE as as whole petition Waste Management to provide yard waste collection service in our area (perhaps we could partner with Indianola in this effort?). If we want our neighbors to take pride in their yards, then we should provide a way for them to dispose of the cuttings/clippings/other compostable waste that comes from doing yard work. Many people don't have trucks to haul this stuff away.

I inquired to WM last year about yard waste collection, but they only said that they don't service our area. I think a bigger voice is needed.

Cars parked partly out on the main roads! Not fair . . .

I don't understand what drivers are thinking when they park their cars partially out on a heavily traveled public road, then walk off leaving it there forcing vehicles into the oncoming lanes of traffic. This is happening more here, day and night.

I think it is a purposeful act of disrespect toward the other residents of our community. I suggest that the way to modify this behavior is for us all to record vehicle license numbers and nearest home addresses, then dial 911 and report it to the sheriff!
