Cassetti announces end of trash reduction pilot program in Ansonia

ANSONIA - Mayor David S. Cassetti announced Monday that the pilot program for the trash reduction program through NVCOG Reduce the Trash has ended at this time, with no plans to continue at this point.

If you still have the orange and green bags, you are welcome to use them and sort as you choose, Country Disposal will still pick the bags up. We will advise should we decide at a future date to start a food waste management program up again.

Thank you for your cooperation with this pilot program that was new to all.
