Community Conversation on Waste Management Changes

The city of DeSoto is inviting residents to a “Community Conversation on Trash Talk” event, where waste management and collection services will be the hot topics.

Since the city’s announcement and implementation of new trash bins and services, the subject has become a hot issue among residents.

Scheduled for Monday, June 10, at 6 PM, the discussion will take place in the DeSoto Public Library Community Room.

With sanitation prices set to increase in 2025, residents will have a chance to ask questions concerning waste management directly.

Councilmember Crystal Chism, representing Place 6, will lead the conversation, focusing on updates regarding waste collection changes with Republic Services.

Interim City Manager Isom Cameron and Republic Representative Leigh Ferguson are set to attend to provide insights and answer community questions.

With residents now able to use the new trash bins starting June 1, many people are still confused about using the new bins, what to do with their old bins and new trash services.

This community event is designed to gain understanding and provide a proactive step toward addressing waste management challenges.

The community-driven event offers a platform for residents to voice their opinions, learn about the services, and engage directly with those in charge of the city’s waste management policies.
