ENVIRONMENTAL AND RECYCLING
Interested citizens are being encouraged to apply for open positions on the city's environmental and recycling committees. Access the application form here (click).
The Recycling Committee will focus on ways to improve and increase participation in the city's recycling program, possibly by shifting to single stream (click) where residents need not separate recyclable items before placing them on the street -- and the Environmental will make pinpointing the sources of the summertime fecal pollution in the bay and waterways a priority (according to Committee member and Councilman Mueller).
Mueller: "We seem to be running short of people on many of our committees ... I would invite citizens to get involved ... put in an application ... an open invitation ... ."
Councilman Ford: "We're going to get the recycling committee going again ... work on which way we want to go ... participation is good ... but we would like to get some more ... if anybody would like to get on it ... appreciate you coming forward ... ."
NO SPECIFIC MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS
According to the city clerk, there are no specific qualifications needed to serve on any city committee, anyone interested may apply. Committee members will review the applications, make recommendations of the best qualified -- and the city council appoint the new members.
Council President Burrell:
"I like to see experience in a given area, if applicable,
and a strong desire to serve. I am looking for people that will put time
into a committee, not just someone that wants to build their resume."
