John,

I'd like to read your mandatory recycling ordinance.  Is it online
somewhere?

Thanks,

Eric

Hi Megan ~

We have made recycling manadatory for all businesses, as well as all
households, apartment dwellings, schools, government offices, etc.

By being mandatory, it helps the economies of scale.

Best wishes,

John
