Recycling. Recycling? Q & A with Reps

Join us for a Q & A with Mary Beth Calnan, Belmont Recycling Coordinator on current recycling program success and future initiatives to better overall waste disposal. Members of Wellington’s PTO will also share their experience with recycling in their school and GREEN TEAM initiatives.

Wed., March 5 at 7-9 p.m. at Belmont Public Library, Assembly Room

Can’t be there? Please send your question and we’ll be sure to include it in our published re-cap. Here are a few of the questions that have already come up from community members:

  • What are the options when this disposal contract expires? 
  • Can recycling compliance rates be increased and how?
  • What would it take to increase composting and how could we benefit?
  • Can Belmont be a Zero Waste Community?
  • Why do I have to break-down my cardboard?
  • Why can't I recycle plastic bags at the curb?
  • Why is there not more regulation of compliance, like with traffic regulations?
