Resident concerned about ice and ruts around recycling bins

Resident encourages better maintenance of recycling bins lot after she was injured and broke her glasses slipping on the ice.

Editor,

I want to thank the gentleman who spoke to me at the recycling bins after I fell. There are good people still in the world, just few and far between.

Those responsible for the bins should make sure there is sand or gravel around the area. Also, the yard needs to be ice bladed and leveled – so many ruts.

When I fell I was lucky I didn’t hit the bin. The outcome would have been worse. I hurt the left side of my body and broke my glasses.
