Where Are Our New Residential Garbage Containers?

I thought that all Somerville residents were to receive new standardized garbage containers very soon, but when are these coming? While following the Board of Alderman Meetings last year, I saw they approved a recommendation from Mayor Curtatone which included a benefit for all residents to receive new standardized garbage containers at no charge. I thought these new containers were going to be delivered to us this year, but there hasn't been any announcement from the City, and nothing has been reported about this in the News. I've been holding off on buying new trash cans to replace my old ones, because I thought new ones were coming. Does anyone know if and when our new garbage containers might be delivered?
