A Few of My Favorite Things

The random give-away.

Yonkers city government announced garbage collection would only happen on Fridays because of budget cuts. But piles like this were on Bronx River Road today.

UPDATE: This issue was featured July 12 in a local CBS newscast (and perhaps on other stations, but I don't keep track). Does that mean it will be fixed? Forty-eight sanitation workers called out sick, causing a job slow-down. The city needs to re-hire the 30-plus sanitation workers who were laid off so Yonkers will have twice-a-week garbage pickup again. Stagnant garbage during these heat waves isn't pretty.
