The City of Laurens in recent months has allowed city residents to “opt out” of paying the city for garbage collection. In doing so, the city announced it will insist that you properly dispose of your trash by other means. Yesterday, it appears someone chose the wrong way to dispose of her trash. Laurens Police were called to a location on Garlington Street at 10:10 yesterday morning on a report of illegal dumping. A maintenance man reported he observed a woman from a green van dump a bag of trash in the dumpster at the location. Should police be able to identity the woman who illegally dumped the bag of garbage, through the license plate on the van or personal identification by witnesses, she will be subject to charges.
