Other: On this page of the City of Bloomington Website (http://bloomington.in.gov/sanitationmodernization) I find conflicting references to the size of the recycling cart that will be issued to residents. See the quoted texts below. B. Recycling Operations • Weekly service: Recycling pickup will become a weekly pickup service on a designated day for each household. • Carts provided: Each household will receive a 64 gallon cart for recycling collection as a default. If desired, customers can also request either larger or smaller carts for recycling instead. Carts will be made of recycled content and containers that are currently being used will be picked up and recycled if the resident chooses. **Note: Households receive a 64 gallon cart. **Later it states...under the FAQs... How many carts will I get? Two carts will be provided per household, one for regular solid waste and one for all recycling. Again, customers will choose the size of their solid waste container. Customers will receive a 96 gallon recycling cart (or may request a smaller sized one), which will be collected for weekly single stream recycling. Households (customers) receive a 96 gallon cart. **My question is about which size recycling cart will people actually receive? I know I can request a smaller recycling cart, but which size are you actually planning to give households by default?
Most tickets of this type should be closed within 9 days, although some cases may be longer. 0 days have already passed.

I believe 64 gallons is the default size, but I'd like someone from Public Works to confirm and update the language on the Sanitation Modernization page. Please let me know if you need any help with it. Thanks for your help!
