Have all of you removed yours yet?
I initially thought that it would be one large charge to remove the durn thing. But a disposal does allow water to pass so removal isn't required - just as long as you don't USE it to grind stuff. How they'll find out about illegal grinding - I dunno.
The garbage police have been around for years. Once posted at the street, my bins get randomly inspected so real trash is in the trash can and real recyclables are in the recycle can.
