On November 10, 1992, the Clean, Green, and Proud Commission met
to discuss several topics. The discussions are outlined below.
1. MSW Plan: Glazier distributed a draft of the proposed
ordinance that would change the city Code as recommended by the
Commission. The draft ordinance would change the City Code so
that:
a)
services
b)
and
all residents are required to have trash hauling
from a licensed hauler,
all residential trash pickup would be from the street,
c) all licensed trash haulers would be required to offer a
recycling service to their customers upon condition of receiving
a license.
The Commission discussed and agreed on some minor changes in the
wording of the proposed changes, and agreed to present the MSW
Plan to City Council. Staff stated they would set up a time with
Council to discuss the plan.

3. Future Projects: Glazier presented to the Commission some •
proposals for future projects in response to Lee Means' request
to research programs in which the Commission might become
involved. Glazier felt that the Commission might want to start
thinking of projects once the MSW Plan had run its course.
Glazier presented two projects for the Commission to contemplate.
One, a seminar for small to medium sized businesses where
participants would be educated about environmental laws and
regulations relating to air, water and solid waste. In addition,
education would be provided in the ways to reduce both the volume
and toxicity of waste streams. Secondly, the Commission
sponsorship of a leaf and grass drop-off program. This program
would allow Englewood residents an opportunity to dispose of yard
clippings so they would be recycled into compost rather then
landfilling.
4. Other Business: Clare Harris made a request that the pext
meeting be informal and not business related. She recommended
that the Commission all go out to dinner for a holiday
celebration. The Commission agreed and staff was directed to
find an appropriate location.
Glazier announced that Rhonda Davis had been chosen by the
Englewood Business and Professional Women's Association as Woman
of the Year.
Glazier informed the Commission that there were currently
two opening on the Commission and urged members to submit
nominations. Glazier also informed the Commission that Thad •
Carson, Chuck Grimes, Ken Haraldsen, Debi Kimball and Phillip
Russell terms expire on December 12, 1992. Glazier requested
that those Commission members indicate to him, some time in the
near future, their willingness to be reappointed.
