In recent weeks, there have been several occasions that Residents have been observed throwing garbage bags at the feet of the Transfer Station Attendants and driving off, attempting to place bags without stickers in the dumpsters, and putting trash on the outside of the dumpsters.
Due to this, the town has installed security cameras that have the ability to monitor the activities that transpire at the Transfer Station including but not limited to: audio and visual recording and capturing of license plates and human movement.
The ongoing safety of both the Residents and Employees of the Town of Sidney is of paramount importance. We hope the institution of this surveillance will contribute to a more peaceful and productive Transfer Station environment.
As a reminder, the Transfer Station Attendants are there to serve the residents of Sidney, ensure proper usage of the facilities, and assist where appropriate. The expectation is that they will be treated with dignity and respect.
