Big response to Castlegar waste collection survey

We asked her if the volume of feedback reflects concerns about what is seen as a step backwards following the recent roll out of the Multi Material BC stewardship program.

The survey included options for curbside garbage and recycling as well as the possibility of a food scraps program.
