Tiburon council balks at request to hike trash rates

The Tiburon Town Council has put off approving an increase to trash and recycling prices for residents, with councilmembers questioning why Mill Valley Refuse Service’s rates in Tiburon are higher than the other jurisdictions it serves and once again calling for the town to put its garbage contract out to bid.
