A proposal to hire a private firm for trash pickups in the city of Iron Mountain was rejected Monday in a 4-2 vote by the city council. Council member Bill Wiegele, who opposed the contract, said that the DPW budget has already been reduced severely. Continuing to cut the DPW budget would result in the department having more equipment than personnel, he said. Council member Ann Martin said that now is the best time to institute a contract, as there would be no jobs lost as a result of the change. Council member Bob Jayne noted that the truck being used by the DPW for garbage collection is only a year old.
