For the past year the city of Spanish Fort has noticed an increase in littering at their recycling center on Ember Lane.
“We pick up those dumpsters six days a week — the cardboard dumpsters,” said Mayor Michael McMillan. “Two of the bigger dumpsters are run by Baldwin County. They’re picked up once a week. But sometimes they’re full because people don’t break down boxes, just throw them out there.”
“We need to put more teeth into our ordinance so we could issue tickets and those kinds of things. We’re not about writing tickets. We’re just trying to keep a clean city,” Mayor McMillan explained. “Jail time is if people keep doing it, keep doing it. Keep doing it. It will be a simple fine,” Mayor McMillan adds.
“I always feel bad because there’s like a little park right over here, you know, for kids and stuff and who wants to be looking at a bunch of trash, you know,” said Spanish Fort resident Janet Norman.
