Downtown Delray dumpsters cause a stink - Sun Sentinel

Downtown Delray Beach is awash in its own garbage in the alleys behind Atlantic Avenue restaurants. Some dumpsters are on city property and even they do not have the proper enclosures. There are problems on private property too. Waste generation was a concern during the review of the Atlantic Crossings project by Veterans Park. Anyway, things seem to be a smelly mess and it is going to be a while before things can be adequately addressed. Click title for link.

Delray's Community Improvement Assistant Director Al Berg said he surveyed the downtown trash problem and found more than 40 trash bins that didn't comply with city rules.
The dumpsters weren't secured in the required enclosure causing trash to spew out into the street, littering Delray's main attraction.
"We are looking at a massive problem," he said. "I am embarrassed by this."
