Jeannine McKnight commented on Howard McCoy's blog post Bagged Recycle Material no longer accepted in Ridley Park Borough"This is ridiculous and unacceptable. The borough should have say in how recycling is to be collected. The recycling blows all over the street when it's just piled up loose in containers. It's a real mess, and it's unsafe. Putting the…"
Julie Lacontora commented on Howard McCoy's blog post Bagged Recycle Material no longer accepted in Ridley Park Borough"Now I know why my recyclables were not picked up! How silly is this? The bags should be recyclable as much as the bottles are! And carrying a plastic bag full of empty plastic bottles is so much easier to do. "
Jim Butt commented on Howard McCoy's blog post Bagged Recycle Material no longer accepted in Ridley Park Borough"The Boro has other ways to get this news out besides the 'pull' methods noted. They should have sent letters, used Code Red, and their phone system. I happened to log into RPOL today and saw this, but if I hadn't, I wouldn't have…"
Jim McGowan commented on Howard McCoy's blog post Bagged Recycle Material no longer accepted in Ridley Park Borough"It will almost certainly cause a reduction in recycled material. Any time a change is made in how the recycled material must be handled/packaged it affects the amount of materials put out."

P.A.Guld commented on Howard McCoy's blog post Bagged Recycle Material no longer accepted in Ridley Park Borough"I hope that the disposal company will then place the containers upright and back on the curb. We started bagging because the containers were left lying in the street or laying down on the curb which resulted in them rolling all over. Additionally,…"

I saw the below post on Nick's Facebook page and when I replied to it, he had it deleted and removed. So here is my reply that Nick didn't want you to see:
"Some councilors" on council as Nick proclaims: Dan Broadhurst, Mike Gale, and myself voted for the 2017 budget, but what we wanted the residents to know was that there are concerns that are red flags to our "non- political" opinions. We never said the finances are in bad shape. We know when we are borrowing from one…

Foxes and cats

Please don't let your cats run loose at night. Twice in the past two weeks I have heard cats crying and howling and later saw a fox in the area of Kenny St. and East Ridley Ave. Around one AM. The fox had not caught anything. But it is disturbing.........
