Davis, Golumbek, Jackson, Jensen, Maes, Roth, and Vormittag. Members Absent: B. Davis, Fouts, Howe, Prado, Russell, and Van Dyke. Also Present: Rita Hathaway, City Council Representative Dana Glazier, Coordinator and darn nice guy. Items that were discussed at the August 10, 1993 Clean, Green, and Proud Commission meeting are outlined below . 1. Educational Programs: Glazier stated that there seemed to be a general consensus at the July meeting that the focus of the Commission should be on the education of the public regarding solid waste and environmental issues. Again, the Commission agreed to focus on educational programs rather than try to implement solid waste programs to an unreceptive population. Glazier stated that the Commission should focus on only two or three educational programs rather than envision numerous programs, given the constraints on everyone's time resources. After much debate the Commission decided to direct programs around: 1. master gardener project 2. composting 3. environmental display. It was decided that a committee of several members would meet to more clearly define what those programs would be and to provide the following information for each program: 1. timetable 2. audience 3. objectives. R. Davis, Jackson, and Vormittag volunteered to meet and put together a presentation for the September meeting . Clean, Green & Proud Commission • City of Englewood 3400 South Elati Street • Englewood, CO 80110 • (303) 762-2348 2. Third Annual Golf Tournament: Glazier stated that plans are underway for the golf tournament and he was in real need for • volunteers to help organize the tournament. Glazier also stressed that each member should try and recruit as many players and sponsors as possible to ensure another successful tournament. Jensen and Golumbek agreed to work with Glazier on the tournament. 3. Paint Recycling DroD-off: Glazier explained the program that will be held August 28th and September 25th. Again, volunteers were asked to sign up for the two dates. 4. Leaf and Tire Drop-off: The leaf program has been expanded to also now include tires. A company has agreed to recycle tires to be used as a soil amendment. Glazier explained that tires would be accepted for one dollar and if attached to a rim it would cost three dollars. Again, volunteers were asked to sign up for the two dates. • •
