Monday (October 13) is Columbus Day, a federal holiday that commemorates Christopher Columbus's arrival in the Americas in 1492.
It also is recognized in some places as what is termed Indigenous Peoples' Day, a nod to the debate over European colonization of the Western Hemisphere.
Politics aside, let's get practical. What it means to us is that it will not affect our trash and recycling pickups. While City of Troy workers will be limited insofar as picking up trash, by the time that comes to us for our usual Friday morning pickup we're on the usual schedule.
What does that mean? Simply put, your pickup items should go out on Thursday -- after dark, the City advises, so your neighbors don't have to stare at your junk all day -- and it ill be collected on Friday morning.
You're welcome.
