Allied Waste Sales Manager Jennifer Fagan was present at the meeting to discuss the changes.Fagan said that the company intends to do an audit to determine how much trash is being put out by Carthage residences.According to Fagan this will help the company know if any houses aren't being billed, or if multiple apartments exist in houses being billed only once.Fagan added that this was not the only problem which would be rectified by the increases, saying that one of the primary concerns is simply the amount of trash coming from Carthage, an amount that is 50% higher than the regional average.

Fagan said that the company would not be able to afford to continue service without the changes.

"We're trying to get our head back above water," said Fagan.
