Georgetown Garbage
My Georgetown location is great, and I'm currently enjoying the Christmas tree and decorations that already adorn the main road (M Street). The only negative thing about my new location is the noise. I can sleep through a lot of background distractions, but my aural defences are not up to handling the sound of a garbage truck compressing the trash from neighborhood restaurants at times between 5:20 and 6:30 am. There's got to be a way to get the trash-collecting time changed to something bearable! Any advice on this issue would be most welcome.
I am also a Georgetown resident, renting on 29th Street. I am looking for a quieter spot and am wondering if you have had any feedback on the garbage issue. After working in New York for several years I thought I was accustomed to street noise. However, the early a.m. trucks are awful! Just venting to a neighbor, I suppose. Perhaps a note to Jack Evans...or the ANC. Any suggestions would be helpful. In the meantime, I am looking for a home on a quieter street in Georgetown. Gretchen
