The goal of the Pilot Program is to encourage recycling among students and <br />promote a culture of sustainability at our local schools. <br />Using the grant funds, SWDD has purchased buckets with strainers, recycling bins of various sizes, dollies to <br />help move the larger bins, and recycling carts. These materials represent a total value of $6,975.71 and will <br />be donated to the SDIRC for their use in classrooms, offices, hallways, cafeterias, and outdoor areas. SWDD <br />has an additional $524.29 of grant funds (for a total donation value of $7,500.00) that will be used to purchase <br />additional educational materials and promotional items on an as -needed basis once the Pilot Program begins <br />in January 2018. The transfer of this donation, under section 125.38, Florida Statutes, requires the SWDD <br />Board to adopt a resolution to approve the donation to the SDIRC. <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br />Staff recommends the Solid Waste Disposal District Board adopt and authorize the Chairman to sign the <br />resolution to approve the conveyance of recycling materials for the recycling pilot program to the School <br />District of Indian River County. <br />ATTACHMENT: <br />1.
