Why are we paying so much for garbage pickup?

The Craigdaroch subdivision recently applied for and was granted a Service Boundary Extension to include Garbage Collection Service. The information from that petition is below. They also get recycling pickup. Is there a community minded person/group who could put together a petition to include Union Bay proper?

Don’t know what others are paying, I pay $75.00 for 3 months of bi-weekly pickup. Will be interesting to see what the costs comparisons are when the conversion study is done to provide exactly what our tax dollars are paying for now.
