What this means
The commission talked about ways to help residents compost yard and food waste, including stickers for compost bins and a possible notice on an upcoming water bill. It also planned the August 23 recycling event and decided the top priority should be a handout explaining where to take items the village event will not accept. The group also discussed whether the library could help with sustainability projects and noted that the Green Business Program Revival will be handled at a future meeting.
