Councilman Troiano Unveils New Solar Powered Compactor in Westbury
Westbury, NY—North Hempstead Councilman Robert Troiano announced today that a new solar powered trash receptacle has been placed at Bunky Reid Park in Westbury. Troiano—pictured from left to right with Park employees Silvester Rodney, James Hodges and Eric Jackson—said the unit takes up as much space as the "footprint" of an ordinary receptacle, but its capacity is five times greater. The compactor also provides cost efficiencies from labor savings, fuel cost, and maintenance savings. For more information please call 311.
