"We saw after July 4 weekend that the city was unacceptably dirty," said DSNY Commissioner Jessica Tisch.
For building supers like Santiago and private homeowners like Queens resident Charles Adegide , who are responsible for putting out the trash, it sounds like a good deal. It will cost the department in overtime, but the commissioner says it cancels out the overtime of the following days getting through the pileup."I'm happy to be one of them," added Pitts."We know some New Yorkers may have muscle memory and be used to not putting the trash out, so we think we have the right number to get the material that's going to be out there off of the streets - certainly by early Tuesday morning," said Tisch.
