Clark Barrow (address protected) stated he was here in March to outline his concerns about the proposed Request for Proposals (RFP) for solid waste services , specifically regarding bulk pickup . He said at the same approximate time of that meeting in the spring , Waste Management began sending a roving truck around to pick up bulk goods left beside the roadways . Mr . Barrow stated when he spoke to a Waste Management representative about the new routine , the person responded they were doing the new service because it made them (Waste Management) look bad to have the bulk goods on the roadways .

He reported that he reviewed the proposed RFP and found very few changes regarding the pick-up requirements in the 1400 - page document . Mr .
