Deskripsyon

A request was issued for litter removal at the subject residence. The reply from Huntsville Landscape Management was for the resident to send an email to an individual at the Huntsville Times/al.com to stop a Mr. Edward Manuel (a private company owner not associated with the Huntsville Times/al.com) from throwing his business card into our yards.

If I may so bold as to point out the “ABSURIDITY” of this suggested resolution. And I would love for someone to explain to how that works.

A better suggestion is for someone from Operation Green Team to give Edward Manuel a call at 256-477-9197 and inform Mr. Manuel that though his method of soliciting for business (plastic bag with pebbles and a business card thrown onto one’s property) does not violate Alabama’s Litter Law but the city continuously receives complaints from such practices.

Suggest to Mr. Manuel that he should consider advertising his services on social platforms such as Nextdoor, Facebook Market Place, etc.

And in the meantime, the City via the City Council should consider drafting an ordinance to prevent this kind of Littering!
