Las Cruces Sun-News - LAS CRUCES - You've had a brown one for years, but soon you'll have a blue one, too. That brown 96-gallon container is for trash. Soon it will have a blue-colored "brother" for curbside recycling. The City Council approved an across-the-board $2.59 monthly charge Monday for the approximately 29,000 city solid waste customers. The monthly charge for the new bi-weekly service will begin sometime early next year.

This will be just one more nail in this city council's coffin of incumbency. Throw the bums out next year. I'm disgusted and fed up with their pie in the sky antics.
The majority of people in Las Cruces do not support this program. It's absolute nonsense and dishonest to say otherwise. Shame on this council.
