-- The New York City sanitation department is looking into a new plan to curb the city's rat problem and, at the same time, help make the streets smell better.get stuff doneAlthough the rats who feast on the mounds of trash on city streets probably won't be sending a"thank you" note to new Sanitation Commissioner Jessica Tisch any time soon, New Yorkers sure will.
The commissioner's plan is to require that businesses and apartment buildings wait to put their trash out until at least 8 p.m. It's currently 4 p.m. And since the trash will be picked up at night, there's an added benefit for the drivers who have waited impatiently for sanitation trucks to finish making pick-ups.But Frank Ricci, of the Rent Stabilization Association, which represents 25,000 landlords, doesn't like it.
"I think if it helps eliminate the rat problem and it helps reduce odors, I think it's a great idea," Little Italy resident Sukhman Dhami said.
