The Editor,
A huge mess was left at Hyde Creek rec centre on Aug. 9 beside the glass drop-off and clothing drop-off boxes.
It is disgusting that residents of Port Coquitlam are such pigs that they cannot get rid of their unwanted reusables and garbage in the appropriate places.
There was a high chair, stroller, hair dryer and tons of junk just left for someone else to clean up and dispose of. Quite a few of these items would have been a treasure to someone if sent to the appropriate place.
Maybe we should take away this clothing drop-off box and maybe this would not happen.
To the city of Port Coquitlam: Instead of sending bylaw officers out to check on when garbage cans are set out at the curb, maybe better use would be to check these drop-off areas and clean them up.
People of PoCo, be proud of where you live and do not add to this mess.
S. Mullen, Port Coquitlam
