Moved by: Councillor Hamilton
Whereas West Grey Council and staff recently received a presentation regarding film plastic recycling and polystyrene (styrofoam) recycling;
Whereas many municipalities across Grey and Bruce are providing this service at a reasonable cost;
Whereas diverting waste by recycling film plastic and polystyrene will extend the life of West Grey landfills and prevent plastics from polluting our environment;
Therefore be it resolved that staff provide the cost of implementing film plastic recycling and the cost of implementing polystyrene (Styrofoam) recycling for council’s consideration at the next scheduled budget meeting.
