Committee hears update on plan to move e‑waste collection from annual event to year‑round service

Committee members heard an update on a proposal to convert the city’s annual e‑waste event into a year‑round collection program. The project lead said he has drafted a program plan, presented it to a review panel of Greenbelt‑certified reviewers, and will seek Greenbelt approval before forwarding the proposal to the Greenbelt approval team and then the City Commission.
Project leads said the city’s internal continuous process improvement program (a Greenbelt training that blends Lean and Six Sigma techniques) guided the work; the presenter said the Greenbelt instructor believes the project has a good chance of approval. Committee members did not take formal action at this meeting; staff and the Greenbelt reviewers will continue internal review and then present the proposal to the commission if approved.
