Most Denver residents won’t have nearly that level of access to the officials that may be implementing the trash overhaul plan — should the council vote to adopt it next month — and tha…
Members of the Denver City Council land use, transportation and infrastructure committee got an hour-long briefing on the city’s proposedchanges to its trash pickup service on Tuesday. It was the second informational meeting before that body over the last few weeks about the long-in-the-works trash changes.
How much outreach will be done? Will it be an ongoing effort? After all, residents could face fines if they intentionally put trash in their recycling bins under the new program. If the new program is adopted, trash collection services would no longer be free in the city. Residents would pay between $9 and $21 a month depending on the bin size trash bin they need, 35 gallons, 65 gallons or 95 gallons. Recycling would continue to be free with pickups taking place weekly instead of every other week and composting would also be free. The focus is on diverting more waste from the city’s landfills to help cut back on methane emissions and fight climate change.
Gilmore wants to see a detailed education plan around the changes. She requested that when city staff brings the proposal back to the committee for a formal vote in the weeks ahead, they have a flow chart showing how customers’ questions will be handled.
