Paula Francis county commissioners heard the results of a recycling study today. But they say the results are misleading. Dave Courvoisier many neighborhoods have been waiting for single stream recycling for years. And are still waiting. As leaders decide whether to extend a Pilot Program that is operating in some neighborhoods. Our own Denise Valdez looked at the issue. Denise Valdez the people who have single stream say they use it and they like it. Let me explain a little bit about how it works. Single stream recycling allows people to put all their recyclables in one big blue trash can. But as commissioners pointed out, some people just put all their trash in those cans, instead of recyclables. This study looked at that single Stream Program versus the red, white and blue programs which is those crates most of us have where were supposed to separate everything. For 12 weeks at the end of last much each program collected. Single stream averaged almost 11 pounds per home per week. While red white and blue averaged just 2 pounds per home per week. Steve Sisolak clark county commissioners my personal opinion to go up 400 seems pretty good, its better than pretty good, i mean its obviously its effective in terms of its being good stewards of our environment, in terms of increasing our recycling and that is a good thing. Peggy schlenther hom eowner my daughter has the one in henderson and it is so much nicer and so much cleaner and its easier for the recycling people to pick up the bin and just dump it in. Denise Valdez commissioners say the results are misleading though, because the weight of the single stream also includes trash. Denise Valdez we reached out to the county for what the next step could be and they could not tell us what the next step would be or if and when the Pilot Program from single stream Dave Courvoisier theres a lot of positive feedback coming in for single stream recycling. Marcie writes. Not sure what is taking so long. I have two sets of tiny bins and still fill them up before my pickup every two weeks. Give us a better solution and we will help solve the problem.
