(Ed.'s Note: For months while the City of Brownsville Commission deliberated on which of three companies to award the lucrative multi-million waste collections contract, complaints against the cost and level of the of the service provided by provider GMS mounted.
Many of these were transmitted to the individual commission members and came up in some city meetings. Few, if any, were actually documented or formally filed with city management. Now, as the company seeks an injunction against the city from awarding the contract to Republic Waste, one of the three companies who submitted to the city's Request for Proposals, one of the items they are requiring of the city representative in deposition is a list of the complaints against it by consumers. Why?
Could it be because the company, under its contract was required to provide adequate equipment and personnel? If there were no complaints on file, could the facts on the ground not matter. These photos were sent to us over the last few months and before the GMS lawsuit. Some show the condition of some dumpsters in downtown Brownsville. Others show the contamination by GMS trucks leaking oil or hydraulic fluid all over town. Do facts on the ground matter in litigation like this?

these trash containers show what type of service this company has, been there way too long since 1986, mm thats wow 33 years, so they made quite a few millions during this time and they cant get new equipment? Come on, i beleive the city of Brownsville deserves better. GMS Folks???? .
If it is, its another item you can add to Cablers shit management during 20 years or whatever it was.
He has corruption imbedded all the way into his bone marrow... hasta el tuetano!!

GMS will still have the contract if Charlie the chops Cable becomes the mayor,they are playing for time.
