compensate its franchised collector for base recycling services. He voiced
concerns about how the SWDD would monitor the recycling tonnages, since
the County's recycling is provided by Waste Management Inc. of Florida. Vice
Chairman Solari requested that staff monitor the Town's recycling.
Director of Utility Services Vincent Burke stated that staff could evaluate the
material coming into the County's collection facility, and/or perform a waste
composition study. Managing Director of the SWDD Himanshu Mehta
mentioned that the SWDD's provision of single -stream recycling carts to the
Town's residents would be a significant step forward.

services.

which this issue is re-examined.
