Recycling Committee <br /> mittee <br /> Meeting Minutes <br /> November 10, 2003 <br /> Members present: Glenn Santos, Nikki Descoteaux, Charlie Gasior <br /> Others; Catherine Laurent <br /> The meeting began at 4:00 p.m. <br /> The committee discussed preparations for their presentation to the Board of Selectmen. In <br /> focusing on the environmental aspects and cost savings of recycling the committee <br /> reviewed the benefits of recycling that Catherine presented. During their presentation the <br /> committee will separate bags of trash to show hove much municipal solid waste is left <br /> after separating all the items that can be recycled. <br /> Catherine would like some sort of direction from the Selectmen. In closing the committee <br /> should point out that recycling is good for the environment and saves money but the <br /> committee needs to know from the Selectmen what they would like the committee to do. <br /> Do they need to look at enforcement? Do they need to make it easier for residents to <br /> recycle? Chuck asked what the cost would be to the town to combine all paper products, <br /> newspaper,junk nail, magazines, etc.? Glenn informed the committee that it would end <br /> p costing more because the ton will pay for the eventual separation as well as the <br /> trucking to an area further away. <br /> Once the agenda is completed, Catherine will email the time of the presentation to the <br /> committee members. <br /> The meeting adjourned at 6:00 p.m. <br />
