The Narberth Borough Council held a business meeting on June 26, 2025, where several key issues were discussed, particularly regarding waste management and the responsibilities of residents in multi-unit properties.
The meeting began with a public comment from a resident who inquired about yard waste removal services. The resident expressed confusion over the payment structure for yard waste disposal, noting that they were paying a private contractor rather than utilizing borough services. The discussion highlighted the complexities of waste management for residents living in multi-unit buildings, such as condominiums.
Council members clarified that individual property owners are entitled to put out their own yard waste, even if they reside in a shared building. However, they noted that the borough's waste management ordinance is designed with the understanding that units may operate collectively, similar to an apartment complex. This raised questions about how waste removal costs are allocated among residents and whether the borough could accommodate individual requests for yard waste pickup.
The council emphasized that if residents were to pay for borough waste removal services, they would have the right to manage their waste independently. The conversation also touched on the potential challenges of determining waste amounts generated by individual units and how that might affect service costs.
Overall, the meeting underscored the need for clearer communication regarding waste management policies, especially for residents in multi-unit dwellings. The council encouraged residents to reach out to borough officials for further clarification on waste removal services and potential solutions to their concerns.
