Back in 2010, we started petitions to amend the Cleveland City Charter to remove traffic revenue cameras and repeal the waste collection tax. The process was slower and more difficult than we expected, so we put the trash tax petition on hold to focus on the camera removal petition, which culminated in the landslide victory of Issue 35 earlier this week. Now that that’s out of the way, we’re assessing whether there is sufficient donor and volunteer interest to restart the petition to repeal the waste collection tax. Stay tuned for further announcements.
