Susan,

I believe that Denver falls somewhat into that category... they are
about to announce the winner of the bid to service the SS processing
needs (City trucks collect).

Hi, 
I'm wondering if anyone out there knows of a community that was faced
with
potentially curtailing their curbside, curb-sort recycling program (or
perhaps did curtail it for a time) and opted to implement single-stream
(all
materials commingled in a cart) curbside recycling in order to save on
collection costs and thereby keep their program?

Thanks in advance !
