By ALLIE THOMPSONThis is an overdue shout out about Los Alamos County employee (I’m sorry, I don’t have his title) Larry Valdez and Joseph from the solid waste department.
We received a “nuisance” notification about a brush pile awaiting pickup. When I explained that I had called and asked if there had been a pickup on our street and was informed that it hadn’t been done yet and I could put the pile out, Mr. Valdez reassured me that they would work with us on the matter, not to worry, and to contact the solid waste department.
Joseph from solid waste returned my call and was also so very helpful. The brush pile was picked up when he said it would be and waived the charge for a special pickup because of a communication error.
It’s nice to know that there are such wonderful people who work in our community. We are very fortunate, indeed.
