[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Only the trash companies who are afraid they will have to competitively bid for work oppose this.[/quote] A yearly REC Center membership in Fairfax County is $700. A yearly membership at Planet Fitness is $350. As you can see, Fairfax County is well known for never managing to compete with private companies. The proposed sanitation district is even worse because the county is going to buy service from private companies and then resell it to the residents. The is no savings due to scale because there are only about three private trash haulers for over a million people.[/quote] This is such a dumb comparison. Our county rec center is beautiful with an indoor pool, turf fields, indoor courts and meeting spaces. My kids are members of planet fitness and you have a bunch of equipment loaded into one room, a bathroom and that's about it. [/quote]
