Recycle this! After years of neglect on the issue, the City started 2009 auspiciously with the unveiling and rapid ramp–up of a Citywide curbside, single–stream recycling program. While consumer usage initially didn’t match the City’s sense of urgency, the user side has picked up steam and is now running at about 50 percent usage — actually a pretty competitive number, nationally speaking, which amounts to about 500 tons of recyclables a month.

| December 08, 2009You can’t make a living driving a taxi in Savannah anymore. That’s right, loyal Fare Game readers. The recession has taken a big bite out of the taxi business and that combined with greedy taxi company owners and a worthless transportation department in Savannah have “driven” cab drivers to have to look elsewhere to put food on their tables and a roof over their heads. Everybody has been hit by the collapse of the ...
