LATHROP – It has been five years since the Allied Waste Corporation asked for any sort of a rate increase for seniors. And in a show of good faith, the company – which has held the city’s exclusive sanitation rights for more than a decade – agreed to extend that for at least another 12 months. But they’re not getting off completely scot free either.As part of a new five-year exclusivity contract, every resident will pay a one-time $0.36 fee that will help cover the cost of a secondary city-wide cleanup day – which will include curbside e-waste pickup – and a host of other contracted community agreements like scholarships and mandatory involvement at local functions.
