B. Neighborhood trash pickup would most likely disappear if people in the community voted to eliminate all local taxes. This service is usually funded by local taxes and without it, residents would have to find alternative ways to dispose of their trash. The other options listed are typically funded by state or federal taxes and would not be affected by the elimination of local taxes.
