Recycling Pilot Program
The Municipality is pleased to announce the launch of a new 12-week pilot program for curbside recycling pickup, offering urban residents a convenient way to participate in waste diversion efforts. This initiative is part of the Municipality’s ongoing commitment to improving waste management practices and addressing increased operational costs associated with the recent transition to a Transfer Station.
The shift to this new system has resulted in higher operating expenses, which have subsequently contributed to increased local taxes. The curbside recycling pilot will allow the Municipality to explore practical solutions that reduce strain on their Transfer Station while supporting responsible environmental stewardship. By diverting recyclable materials, it is hoped to lower costs and provide long-term benefits to the community.
During the pilot period, residents will be able to place designated recyclable materials at the curb for collection. To ensure safety for both staff and residents, glass items will not be accepted through curbside pickup. Glass can instead be dropped off at the Municipality’s designated depot for proper processing and handling.
At the conclusion of the 12 weeks, the Municipality will conduct a thorough review of the collected data to evaluate the program’s effectiveness. The findings will help determine whether curbside recycling will move forward as a permanent service for urban residents.
The Municipality encourages all eligible households to participate and help contribute to a cleaner, more sustainable community
