The City of Pittsburg is officially rolling out a new service for residents. “I think for the most part, I mean, we’re just wanting to make Pittsburg a clean town,” said Troy Graham, city of Pittsburg property and sanitation assistant director. City of Pittsburg property and sanitation assistant director Troy Graham says for years, departments around the city have picked up bulk solid waste and trash. But are now making this task officially their own. “What we’re doing now is basically trying to fill that void since we’ve been doing it anyways. And like I said, we’re just the start of this and we’re looking forward to serving the citizens,” said Graham. As it launches, services will only be offered to residents within Pittsburg city limits. Graham says so far, 800 residents have signed up to receive solid waste trash services from the city. “We’ve had some hiccups along the way over the last couple of years. So just, you know, getting out there and seeing people actually, you know, getting some real positive feedback from the citizens that they’re looking forward to it,” said Graham. This week, the city received its first truck for that service, and is waiting to receive another one as well as carts to go around town.
