Of course one of government's duties is garbage collection but in eras of
fiscal austerity, it is not at all uncommon for the business community to
chip in to obtain higher levels of collection than the government can
provide.  Here in New York City, for example, there are many examples of
business districts that tax themselves to provide more enhanced
cleanliness/garbage collection than our local government can provide--at
34th Street, 42nd street, 6th Avenue in the Village, and many other
locations.
