Mayor Pro Tem Christianson, indicated that a
resident questioned whether BFI could provide
recycling bins that are easier for the elderly to
handle. He explained that an elderly woman
recently fell and was injured while attempting to
move the bin. He inquired whether B.F.I. has
containers with wheels.
Richard Chilton, Browning Ferris Industries;
commented that the company does not normally
provide extra service but admitted that B.F.I. has
provided additional service for handicapped
residents in the past. He stated that bins on
wheels would be used if the recycling collection
were automated, adding that B.F.I. does not provide
that type of service to Grand Terrace presently.
He suggested that the resident in question place
the container at the front of her house, remarking
that the company employees will then take it out to
the curb on collection day.
Councilmember Carlstrom, indicated that he will
miss outgoing Assistant City Manager Randy Anstine
but expressed delight that the Mayor has recovered
from surgery and returned to Council. He reported
that the area on Barton Road near the railroad
bridge has been paved, eliminating the mud at that
site.
Councilmember Sinalev, welcomed the Mayor back to
the Council and expressed gratitude to Mayor Pro
Tempore Christianson for chairing the meetings in
the Mayor's absence. He explained that he was late
to the City Council meeting because he was in
attendance at a meeting with the San Bernardino
County Sheriff's Department. He reported that he
attended a meeting with the area City Managers and
Supervisor Barbara Riordan regarding the cities'
contract with the Sheriff's Department, stating
that the County has placed the contract on hold.
He relayed that many of those in attendance at the
meeting expressed misgivings regarding the County's
credibility. He commented that a report on the
outcome of the contract would be forthcoming in the
future.
Councilmember Hilkev, indicating that Assistant
City Manager Anstine will be missed, wished Mr.
Anstine good luck. He reported that there will be
a small increase in Comcast Cable rates in March,
