Sugar Land City Council will hold a workshop tonight to discuss a transition program for enhanced solid waste collection and recycling programs. The proposed pilot plan provides about 1,800 residents with one a week automated collection of garbage and recycling using a 96-gallon cart, one a week collection of green waste utilizing compostable bags and semi-monthly collection of bulky items.
The service levels for the transition plan are designed as a starting point, and will be adjusted if necessary, according to city staff. The pilot program will also gauge the “effectiveness of communication materials.”
The neighborhoods included in the transition are Plantation Colony, Magnolia Plantation, Lakefield, Austin Park, Lakes of Austin Park, Colony Park and Sweetwater Sections 1, 2, 3, and 3A.
Garbage and recycling will be collected on Mondays, Green Waste will be collected on Wednesdays and bulky waste will be collected semi-monthly on the first third and fifth Wednesdays.
Council will discuss the plan during their regular meeting at 5:30 p.m. in Cane Room Number 161 at City Hall, 2700 Town Center Blvd.
I want TWICE a week collection by humans, not a robot arm.
