The long awaited new garbage bins are now arriving along Downtown streets. They’re tubby and silver with a special foot pedal that opens the slots where your litter is deposited.
Opinions about their beauty and svelte shape vary across a range of reactions.
There is one intriguing question being discussed widely: How long will that foot pedal survive? Will it just wear out? Will the snowplows wing it off? Perhaps it may even endure the full twenty year lifespan of the container. Wags are said to be setting up betting pools.
