Constable Zoe Lihou said it has been a contentious issue for a number of years, with some people saying they throw it straight in the bin, and others relying on it for updates from the Douzaine.

“Let’s see what happens if we don’t distribute it,” she said. 

“You know, we’re increasing refuse rates and asking people to do their recycling and yet we’re feeding their recycling bin.”

The Townie will still be available in print for those people who want it and the decision to stop printing it could remain for 2022.
