The Official Unofficial Minutes of the WL BOA
3-3 Meeting
Another day older and deeper in debt. Ok, so if you know who Tennessee Ernie Ford is I can guess your age.
Alderman Finn, WL official Trash Lady (not to be confused with Trashy Lady) reported to the BOA the weigh in results for December and January of the comingled dumpsters (plastic, cans, cardboard). 2.2 tons in December, 2.5 tons in January. Stuff that would have gone to the land fill, wow. My guess for 2009 will be over 30 tons, that is conservative. Imagine if more folks get on board.
Apparently there was a rumor the NKC recycling center @ Metro was closed. Not true. I believe KC did close one down, not up here. There is a concern about the NKC spot because of falling recycling values and the KCMO budget crisis. Quite a few WLeans take items we do not accept in our receptacles, like glass to Metro. Alderman Finn would like to do a monthly glass drop (should I rephrase that?) in the City...what do you think? If you have ideas or want to help, give her a call.
