(v) Council Member Waggoner mentioned an article in 1hc most recent City Beat regarding recycling. ttying 10 convince ail ofus to n:cycle and what a fine thing ii is, ycr he heard about a month and a half ago that Waste Management was going 10 eliminate plastics from the recycle program because just recycling plastics in i!Sclf would not pay the cost oflhc pn>gnlffl. He said the article stated you can recycle newspapers because they pay for themselves. you can recycle glass because it pays for i!Sclf. But he said, it just seems like w, ::Oo '1 recycle because each individual item docsn 't pay for i!Sclf in the nwtetplacc and that seems a little ridi°'•lous to him Council Member Waggoner mentioned that it has been a couple or years now that he has trit.d to gcr an ordinance, or something. that says that everybody that provides MISle service in EngJ.,.ood ,.;11 recycle everything Iha! is considered a recyclable material . i ;, said he thinks it is time 10 go ahead and n,surrcct Iha! again and make sun, that if they are going to provide a sclVicc then they n,cycle the material. l k ,a1J he doesn 't care wheU1cr glass doesn't pay for i!Sclf, they can make newspaper poy for part of glass. they don't have to make a dollar on every item that they n,cycle. Again, he said, he wants to bring that up and sec what Council can do about it. Council W.cmbcr Garrett said that, as a precursor lo that is 10 listen to a clicck of all the people that provide services to see what they all n,cycle and to sec what the marketplace is doing. He said if the rnarl:ctplacc isn't whal "" want then it goes to what Ms . Habenicht has been wanling to do for quite some time, is to have a ~le hauler and that would be part oflhe conltaCl Ms .
