Manager action gets commendation
To the editor:
We have read so many letters in the paper all touting the negative aspects of our Town. I want to say a huge “thank you” to Terry Stewart, our Town manager. On Friday at 4 p.m., I called to notify him of a block on Estero Boulevard where garbage pick up had been missed the day before.
After calling the garbage collection company twice Friday and getting no results, I immediately called code enforcement and left a message as to why three of my rental properties, one neighbors’ property and three other rental companies’ garbage’s were still sitting out for collection. I then called Mr. Stewart to advise him of the same. He listened, said he would make a phone call and call me right back. Within less than 5 minutes after hanging up from Mr. Stewart, not only had he called me back, but also the gentleman from the garbage company that Mr. Stewart had called. Less than one hour later, all the garbage was collected that had been missed the day before.
Some say things move too slowly within our Town. My phone call to Mr. Stewart proved that things can and do move quickly. Thank you Mr. Stewart!
