Body
Implement a recycling program in City Parks.  Costs include the purchase of 300 carts at $50 each.  Two refuse trucks would also be modified at a cost of $8,000 each, to pick up the carts.  Two new seasonal employees would be hired for 800 hours per season.  The carts would be collected once per week.
 
To ensure success the implementation strategy will be developed by the Parks Division and Board of Park Commissioners, working in conjunction with the Streets Division. The implementation strategy will come back through the Common Council before any money is expended.
