Title

Discussion on the City of Brookings Yard Waste Program.

 

Body

Summary:

Todd Langland, Director of the Brookings Regional Landfill, will present information on the automation of the yard waste program in 2020.

 

Background:

The current program was started in 1994 based off of Rapid City. The City provides the yard waste bags to the local businesses for sale to the residents of Brookings. In 1994 we ordered 20,000 yard waste bags and today the Collection department currently picks up over 67,000 bags per year.
