Summary by Ground News
Chattanooga Mayor Tim Kelly announced Tuesday that the city will raise pay for qualified recycling, trash and brush collection drivers by about $14,000. Last week, Kelly suspended the city's curbside recycling pickup service due to a shortage of drivers qualified to offer collection services. Kelly said that the fiscal year 2022 budget will include significant pay increases for those drivers.
