It is in the interest of society as a whole and of the Municipality, and its ratepayers in particular, that the amount of waste material generated by private citizens and businesses be reduced; that wherever possible such materials be re-used or recycled; that the environment be protected from contamination by hazardous substances; and that the lifetime of existing and future Sanitary Landfill Sites be extended. Council has recently passed new by-laws in this regard and recycling is now mandatory. As well, clear bags only will commence effective January 1st, 2008.
