Solid Waste Management
Nearly everything we produce, use or consume leaves behind
some kind of waste. The treatment and disposal of waste can be
a source of water, land, and air pollution. By managing solid
waste and conserving resources through reduction, reuse, and
recycling, the city will help minimize impacts to the quality and
safety of the local environment, reduce costs of waste disposal
and pollution mitigation, and decrease the carbon foot print
associated with the production, use and disposal of materials.
Goals:
• Reduce volume of solid waste citywide, moving toward
a zero waste community.
• Increase volume of recyclables diverted from landfill
citywide.
