LETTER: Costly garbage changes need to create jobs

I wondered if new jobs will be created with automated garbage collection

To the editor,

Re: $6.2M approved for garbage automation, Aug. 17.

From the moment I first heard about the automated garbage collection, I wondered if any new jobs would be created. One would think that with an investment of $8 million, surely there would be at least some.

Otherwise why even consider it?
