SHREVEPORT, La. – City Council members postponed a vote on a contract with a Shreveport company to return recycling to the city. Without discussion, the council was unanimous Tuesday afternoon in taking no action on the proposal from C. Edwards Concepts LLC for curbside recycling. That differs from the July 13 meeting, where there was some debate on the issue. Business owner Charlette Edwards stands to gain a $10 million contract with the city to resume recycling. That’s despite having no experience or equipment. At least two council members have said publicly they will vote no on Edwards’ contract. There was no discussion at Tuesday’s meeting about when the contract will be up for consideration again.
