The proposed amendments in the attached <br /> Ordinance relate to the provision of specialized collection <br /> services, which essentially involve collection of residential <br /> refuse from other than curbside or alleyside. <br /> As you no doubt remember, the small, private collectors <br /> and their attorney advised the Council that the services that <br /> they provide vary in extent and magnitude from customer to <br /> customer. They also advised the Council that they collect refuse <br /> from some disadvantaged clients for only a few dollars per month. <br /> They asked the Council to permit them to negotiate the fee for <br /> specialized collection services with their clients and to collect <br /> the fee directly from their clients . The Mayor supported such a <br /> change and, it was clear to me, that the Council passed Ordinance <br /> No. 8436-93 expecting an amendment to be filed effectuating the <br /> compromise that was made. <br /> Accordingly, we have suggested changes to Ordinance no. <br /> 8436-93, as follows : <br /> 1) We have added a definition for specialized <br /> collection services . <br /> 1308 County-City Building South Bend, Indiana 46601 219/284-9412 <br /> John E.
