With the City of Forest Park's sanitation contract with Waste Management set to expire in May of this year, city leaders are expected to discuss whether to renew the contract, bid out the service to other companies, or get into the business of garbage collection themselves.

The Forest Park City Council will host a special-called meeting today at 6 p.m., at Forest Park City Hall, at 745 Forest Parkway. In addition to discussing the city's sanitation service, the mayor and council are expected to discuss the possibility of hiring an additional code enforcement officer and adding a full-time information technology (IT) position, according to City Manager John Parker.
