September 04, 1997Some cities fire officials after garbage strikesYour site's date says 1 August. What is the current situation on the garbage strike? I have not seen any papers carrying this story in the Midwest of the United States. When I was on the city council in Pismo Beach, California, 1972-76, the citizens had a situation where they could not get financial information for six months. Finally a neighboring city published this fact, and eventually the city administrator was fired.
What is the current health situation there? Karen Husemeyer Boerboom Dubuque, Iowa Karen:The garbage strike ended Aug. 5 when Gov. Yevgeny Nazdratenko agreed to pay some of the back wages of striking trash collectors. We reported on it on Aug. 7, in Issue No. 14 (you can find it in our archives). Sorry if we had an old date on a more recent issue; sometimes our otherwise peerless Web layout staff neglects such details. Russell Working Editor
