waste drop-off at the recycling center, but if that is not convenient,
citizens may call for leaf pick-up on two different days.  The cost of
Option 2 is approximately $2,300.  Option 3 also encourages use of the yard
waste drop-off and an appointment may be set for pick up if a citizen is
unable to utilize the drop-off.  The cost of Option 3 is approximately
$750.00.
