According to Town Manager Bob Hall, the selectboard will be discussing the issue at the board's next meeting on June 19. Not surprisingly, Palmer thinks it's become a great part of life in Bristol, though he doesn't flatter himself. I don't think people care much about me. It's basically about the horses. Cost is an important issue, though.

We may discontinue. Obviously, we don't want to do that. The increased rate cut Palmer's load, from 4,000 pounds to about 3,200 per week. Now he sees a lot of recycling put out, and not so much trash. He's concerned that the pick-up service may not be able to pay for itself with the rates so different.
