EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation that the Board of County Commissioners adopt an Ordinance to amend
Ordinance No. 2004 -50, the Collier County Non - Residential Recycling Ordinance.
OBJECTIVE: To amend the Collier County Non - Residential Recycling Ordinance No. 2004 -50
(Ordinance No. 2004 -50) including, but not limited to, changing the title to Collier County Recycling
Ordinance, creating minimum standards for recycling on multi- family property, recycling at temporary
events, and recycling at venue facilities.
CONSIDERATIONS: The Solid Waste Management Department (Department) is responsible for
managing the Collier County Landfill (Landfill). Commercial facilities generate approximately 58%
of the municipal solid waste buried in the Landfill. As a steward of the Landfill, the Department
evaluates recycling and diversion programs that enable the County to conserve valuable landfill
capacity.
On July 27, 2004, the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) approved Ordinance No. 2004 -50
(Agenda Item 17F) to require recycling at non - residential properties. On December 5, 2006, the BCC
approved the Integrated Solid Waste Management Strategy (ISWMS) that included aspects related to
source reduction, materials reuse, and recycling. A component of the ISWMS is to enhance
commercial recycling education and enforcement, promote residential multi - family recycling, and
implement events /venue driven recycling.
On June 10, 2008, the BCC directed staff to develop an amendment to Ordinance No. 2004 -50. The
amendment to Ordinance No. 2004 -50 is mainly administrative consisting of updating titles and
definitions, including multi - family property, venue facilities and temporary events in the awards
program, requiring reports from organizers and contractors, and including the enforcement under the
Special Magistrate instead of the Code Enforcement Board. The amendment has three main
components which will help improve recycling throughout the community by making it more
convenient to residents. The three main components are found in:
Section Eight: Creating minimum standards for recycling on multi- family property by requiring the
placement of recycling containers on site at multi- family complexes and requiring education and
signage for residents be provided. The Annual Solid Waste Rate Resolution already sets the mandatory
multi - family recycling collection fees paid per unit per month for recycling on multi- family property.
Section Nine: Establishes minimum standards for recycling at temporary events by requiring recycling
containers at the event, requiring information is provided to vendors and visitors and a recycling plan
is submitted with the county permit request. Temporary events are already required to have a waste
disposal plan. Requiring recycling simply separates the recyclables from the solid waste. The
Department is available to assist by providing temporary events with loaner recycling containers if
needed.
Section Ten: Establishes minimum standards for recycling at venue facilities. Venue facilities
(building or facility designed for temporary events) are already required to recycle under the current
Agenda Item No. 17E
October 27, 2009
Page 2 of 22
ordinance. The amendment requires a temporary Special Events Recycling Plan be submitted to the
Department once per year. The plan will help the Department ensure recycling is sufficient and in
place.
The amendment will enhance the County -wide mandatory recycling ordinance by increasing recycling,
diverting recyclables from the Landfill, and conserving valuable Landfill capacity.
FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact to the County. The cost for collection services is
already incurred by organizers of temporary and special events, and owners or managers of venue
facilities. Multi - family properties which are currently serviced by the County's franchised haulers pay
for collection and recycling services.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: The amendment to Ordinance No. 2004 -50 supports the
goals and objectives of the April, 2006, Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR) amendments to the
Solid Waste Sub - element of the Collier County Growth Management Plan: "1. Develop the means to
partially or completely divert solid waste from the landfill (additional recycling or alternative forms of
disposal)." Specifically, this amendment supports Objective Policy 3.1c (Maintaining and enhancing
the county -wide mandatory non - residential recycling ordinance).
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item has been reviewed and approved by the County Attorney's
Office and is legally sufficient - JBW
RECOMMENDATION: That the Board of Commissioners adopt an Ordinance to amend Ordinance
No. 2004 -50, the Collier County Non - Residential Recycling Ordinance.
PREPARED BY: Mary Jo Thurston, Waste Reduction and Recycling Manager, Solid Waste
Management Department.
