Audience Parti~ciPation RichardMarg ius~, Jamestown Apartments, 4809 Columbia Road. Mr. Margolius would like the city to include multi-family residences in the recycling program that will start in May. He said that the city is urxler a mandate from the County and the State, through HB 592, to prepare a comprehensive recycling program which covers all residences in the city, rat just single-family residences. He quoted a document distributed by the Cuyahoga County Plarniing Coami.ssion which stated, "each municipality, village, or townaship within the Cuyahoga County Solid Waste Management District sha71 develop and implement a comprehensive residential land- fill diversion program which mist include all residential dwellings". He is not asking the city to pick-up the refuse .that goes to the landfill. However, Y~ does feel that the city has a moral responsibility to include multi-family residences in the recycling program. Mr. Margolies is not asking for a different system; the apartment residents will use the blue bag system just like single-family s. He feels that it will be cost effective for the city to pick up recyclables for 324 suites at one location rather than 324 separate residences. ~y: 3
