Additional Information
Under the leadership of Mayor and Council, staff began evaluating the potential for outsourcing sanitation services. At the City Council Work Session on July 20th, Jeff Timler, Special Projects Manager/Director of Sustainability presented a memo in response to Council’s interest in the potential for outsourcing sanitation services. Click here to read the memo. After discussion, Council tapped the Sustainability Commission to do additional research and asked staff to proceed with a series of public forums to share information and gather opinions from Dunwoody residents and businesses.

Hopefully, someone has, or will, correct Mr. Timler on his facts regarding the services DeKalb County provides.
1. There is only an initial cost of $30 for the blue bin and bags. There is no $15.00/year cost. The additional $15.00 is incurred if additional bags are needed.
2. There is one recycling day - Wednesday. Cans and newsprint are not picked up on separate days.
And it is DeKalb County, not Dekalb.
Rick Callihan has a nice article on the DeKalb Sanitation system on his Dunwoody Talk blog. I highly recommend reading it.
