Sidewalk by Angelo's


A Sunday on the Square. Fair Diddley. Hundreds (thousands?) of visitors to the Square. Sidewalks neat and clean?

Why were three Marengo Disposal wheeled trash containers (with no lids) on the sidewalk alongside Angelo's before 9:00AM? In all fairness to Angelo, I did not go into the restaurant to ask if the containers were his. One reader commented a while back that the trash in containers had come from offices on the second floor of the building. Did they this time?

How is it that the City does not anticipate that the restaurant or the businesses upstairs will put their trash out on Sunday morning (complying with the law to put it out no more than 24 hours before pick-up) and "trash up" the sidewalks during a popular and high-volume visitor day? Or should the Chamber of Commerce or the Woodstock Downtown Business Association have a little "sit-down" with Angelo and figure out a permanent solution to this problem?
