Ano SELDOVIA WILL SA1 ELL ASA ROSE
Seldoviaf s Clean-Up campaign, which still
has not made any noticeable improvement in
the general appearance of the cityfs yards
and beaches, may very well become the hand
writing on the wall in the weeks ahead.
Although the present casual method of
tossing a"can out of the window or dumping a
bucket of garbage over the Boardwalk railing
may have served well enough during the years
gone by, Seldovians have a right to expect
something better in the years ahead.
However radical the idea may sound to the
solid Seldovians who "never want our town to
bo any different from the way it is now,”
the time must come when some sort of munici
pal garbage system will be enforced. Per
haps that time is not yet, but from the
filthy conditions apparent on the beaches, it
certainly ought to be at hand.
Just how a garbage collection system can
be worked in Seldovia is not a question to
be answered by The Frontiersman. There is a
municipal truck -- possibly some sort • of
twice-a-week pick-up service could be inaug
ur a.ted. Or perhaps a city dump might be de
signated to which garbage could be hauled by
individuals. Ferhaps there is a way of
working out a satisfactory disposition in
the bay, if the garbage can be dumped out in
midstream and not along the beaches.
Whatever the system, there must be one
worked out and soon. City fathers are look
ing for possible new sources of revenue —
this may be one way by which more money can
be brought into the city treasury to be used
for essential city projects. A charge for
the pick-up, as well as the revenue derived
from"fines for those homes which fail to ob
serve garbage disposal regulations should
return a tidy sum to the city.
The haphazard garbage-tossing along the
Boardwalk by both business houses and pri^
vate homeowners is the chief topic of con
versation for newcomers to Seldovia. It can
hardly help but be that, when the eye and
nose press home the reality of garbage on
every hand.
Let's get the conversation of our visit
ors and home-seekers on a little higher le
vel this summer. '
