I couldn't locate the article online either, but it was very short; I will type it's entirety:
 
What's the Deal?
Dallas offers extra pickup for a price.
   An amnesty for grass abuse? Indeed.
 
   Times are changing for a normally outlawed practice. Dallas residents may mark bagfuls of lawn clippings with special tags costing $1.50 each, then place them curbside for normal trash service.
 
   But be warned: no tag, no pickup.
 
   The service runs from Monday through April 16, with tags available by calling 311 or visiting www.dallascityhall.com.

doesn't have a "Metropolitan" or "Section B" designation. Under what other
name should we look? Thanks, Margaret Lauterbach
