Decision Points in Developing Mandatory Recycling Ordinances
Monday, February 8th, 11:00 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.- Commercial Recycling

Steven Sherman, Senior Manager, Cascadia Consulting Group

Your recycling program has hit a plateau. Your participation and tonnages are stable, but not fabulous. Recycling coordinators have been educating your community for practically a generation. You’re using rate incentives, but the cost savings aren’t huge.  Participation is voluntary, but you and a few of your board or council members are quietly thinking that maybe mandatory might be OK. Recycling can help reduce GHG, after all.

Come learn about several communities that have passed mandatory recycling ordinances. Explore the elements and choices in ordinance language—who’s included, what materials, enforcement, exemptions, etc.—and how to build support.
