RECYCLING UPDATE — Use the Blue And Save Green!
City residents and businesses recycled about 7,700 tons in 2014 — our best year since 2008!
Residents and businesses benefitted by over $480,000 from avoided landfill disposal costs and
revenues from recycled material sales. These savings are reflected in monthly sanitation rates.

Green!” Here’s what should go in your blue curbside recycling bin:
