New trash collection

In our new tax bill, Mayor Fung states that our new automated collection program will save more than $130,000. Is that all? How much did the new barrels cost and how many people lost their jobs for this small savings. Is it per year or what? My daughter lives in Warwick and they have automated collection. When they have a large item that will not fit in the barrel, they call and a truck is sent out at NO COST to the taxpayer!! Mayor Fung's new program will cost taxpayers at least $18 per item that will not fit in the barrels!! Thank you Mayor Fung!
