#Garbage wars..

So the mayor sighed a new contract with an outside company that left plenty of people unemployed, anyone in the know? 9 months of garbage problems can take a toll. I'm just for a cleaner Penasco no matter what it takes.

Lovin it in RP!
how did it leave anyone unemployed if someone has to collect the garbage?......maybe some are no longer employed but others are employed so the same number of employees are working, but they have different names.....I don't care what their name is as long as I get my trash picked up on a timely basis (which hasn't happened yet)

A significant number of brand new trash trucks, big nice ones have appeared in Penasco, all with the OOMAPAS paint job and logo. Who owns them ? Who knows but should pick things up in the trash business !
 
I gotta believe that if anyone is left unemployed they were standing around anyways.. (assuming Oompas staffs to do a good job). All city services should be bid out everywhere, especially here in Phoenix where we end up with bloated government and a bureaucratic nightmare.
 
From the pic I saw all trucks were TECMED logo'd.
Oomapas is a water treatment company that operates throughout Sonora and Mexico,
Tecmed is a Sonora based landfill and collection company. They have been around since the late 90's from Hermosillo.
(Like a smaller Waste Management)

If you could read the spanish newspapers or would you wouldn't sound like you have no clue what is going on and when they MIGHT pick up your trash!
 
Sure does look like Penasco city hall from Freemont, the pic I saw was at rockypoint360. This pic also looks like City hall.
It doesn't matter as long as there is decent trash collection service now.

Sounds good if they don't jack up the price like the Euros that run the Caborca~Santa Ana toll road did this year.

That's always the problem with privatization of public services. The contract company works tirelessly to get incremental increases in price until it's through the roof. Not to mention payoffs and corruption. The privatized prison system is pretty much a disaster and a travesty. Might be better than Sheriff Joe but only a little in most cases.

Why do people continually deny and hate that we are now a legitimate socialist country? The Industrial Military Complex and the Prison Industrial Complex are two of the largest social programs in the country!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
