Redington Shores holds trash costs line
NOVEMBER 2007
      REDINGTON SHORES--A four-year freeze on the cost of trash pickup has been negotiated by the town of Redington Shores, which will pass it on to residents.
       The agreement with Waste Services Inc., which collects the town's trash on Wednesdays and Saturdays, means that part of the annual tax bills of residents will not increase over the next four years.
      Waste Services agreed to the four-year freeze when the town agreed to extend its contract with the firm for 10 years.

Redington Shores moves underground
OCTOBER 2007
     REDINGTON SHORES--New lights finally are lighting the streets of Redington Shores and the old overhead wiring has been taken down as most of the town goes underground.
       The removal of the remaining old wooden utility poles also nearly is done and should be completed shortly, says a Progress Energy spokesperson.
       Earlier this year, town officials said the project was to have been completed by June.
       The project, which Redington Shores taxpayers are financing through a $5 million bank loan, does not include Gulf Boulevard. To include Gulf Boulevard would cost more than the town can afford, according to Mayor Jody Armstrong.
