Recycling meetings begin soon

Advertiser Staff

Mayor Mufi Hannemann will hold a series of community meetings in April and May to review plans for a curbside residential recycling program and other ways to manage O'ahu's trash.

Hannemann has proposed a recycling pilot project for central, windward or east O'ahu. It could eventually operate islandwide.

The plan would include a $10 monthly fee for homes that want to continue having trash picked up twice per week.

The meetings will be held from 7 to 8:30 p.m. on Monday at Mililani Mauka Elementary, April 24 at Kaiser High School, April 25 at Kahuku High, May 8 at Mission Memorial Auditorium on the Honolulu civic center grounds, May 10 at Windward Community College and May 21 at Kapolei Hale.
