To the Editors:

I`d like to thank Danny Schneider for negotiation with our trash company to give seniors a discount on their trash bills! As a senior, living alone — I found myself paying for weekly trash pick-up when in reality I only had enough trash to put out every two weeks. I did call the trash company and requested an every two week pickup but they refused stating "that was not part of Peninsula`s contract." I called the Schneiders and explained the problem, hoping they could help out with getting a break for those of us on a fixed income. Lo and behold the new trash contract includes a senior citizen discount! Thanks so much Danny! The Township should also get this benefit in their trash contract.

Editor`s note: For many years the township contract has included a bag option for those not needing unlimited service. This cost is discounted.
