Funding Source: As previously mentioned, funding for administering the recycling contract and all recycling related activities is covered by SCORE monies. The City will remain eligible for SCORE funding whether it continues with a contract for recycling services or if it shifts to an open hauling system. However, regardless of which type of system is implemented, the City will still be subject to the requirements of the recycling agreement including: • Ensuring that each household (including multi-tenant units) has the opportunity to recycle at least four broad types of materials, such as paper, glass, plastic, metal and textiles. • The recycling program must be operated in compliance with all applicable federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations. • The City must implement a public information program that contains at least the following components: o One promotion to be mailed to each household focused exclusively on the City's recycling program; o One promotion advertising recycling opportunities available for residents in the City's newsletter or local paper; and o Two community presentations are to be given on recycling. • The City, on an ongoing basis, must identify new residents and provide detailed information on the recycling opportunities available to these residents. • The City must submit semiannual reports to the County detailing the quantity of materials recycled through curbside collection, recycling events etc. • The City must submit semiannual reports to the County detailing all expenditures and revenues associated with recycling activities.
