The Recology Portal To Sign Up For Your ‘Mohammed Nuru Rebate’ Is Now Open
That $100 million in settlement dollars from allegedly mistaken over-charges is now going out to Recology customers over an online portal, though the company claims they’ll send you a check if you do nothing before July 30.
One of the bright sides of the Mohammed Nuru Public Works scandal and the resulting federal bribery charges against Recology officials was the early March news that SF Recology customers would be reimbursed for rate hikes that may have been inappropriately approved by Nuru. City Attorney Dennis Herrera’s $100 million settlement deal, which was approved by the Board of Supervisors in May, included a $7 million payment to the city, and set aside $94.5 million for anyone who’d been an SF Recology customer between July 1, 2017, and March 31, 2021. Payments to individual customers will reportedly average $190 apiece.

Pennsylvania county awarded demo funds
Schuylkill County awarded $2 million from state government to address nuisance properties.
The government of Schuylkill County in eastern Pennsylvania says it has been awarded $2 million in state grants to go toward demolition projects in the county.
The announcement was made by County Administrator Gary Bender in early March, according to an online report from
Skook News. According to that online media outlet, Bender made the announcement in front of a former high school in the county that it describes as “falling into disrepair since the 1970s.”
Additional elected and appointed officials took part in the announcement event, and they named several communities in the county that would likely benefit from the grants by being able to take down abandoned properties considered nuisances or eyesores.
