waste reduction
City efforts to cut trash and improve recycling and disposal.
Whether staff reports back on the garbage sticker vendor complaint, and whether recycling bin nets move from idea to a specific plan (locations, upkeep, cost).
Typically discussed at Environmental Advisory Board. Check back when the next agenda is published.
This topic has been mostly small, practical stuff: one resident complaint about being forced to buy an extra item to get garbage stickers, and a separate discussion about recycling bin nets to keep litter from blowing around. The next real test is whether either item turns into a clear fix residents can actually see and use.
