Day Around the Bay SF Recology Rates Going Up By Nearly 25, Starting in October
Barry Bonds will receive a statue at Oracle Park, as confirmed by Giants CEO Larry Baer. This new statue will join those of Giants legends such as Willie Mays and Gaylord Perry, celebrating the team's storied history. In a separate development, Recology gained local approval for a 24% increase in trash and recycling collection rates, which will take effect on October 1 and will be implemented in three phases over three years. The increase has raised concerns among residents about rising living costs. Additionally, recent statistics reveal that 57% of individuals arrested by ICE in Los Angeles had no criminal history, raising alarms about immigration enforcement practices.
Only 30% of those detained were convicted criminals, indicating a significant impact on non-criminal individuals. Local officials are under pressure to reassess their policies and address community concerns regarding these arrests. As these issues unfold, residents are encouraged to engage in discussions about immigration enforcement and its implications for local communities.
