Recycling in the Village

The end of curbside recycling in the Village will be briefly discussed in the upcoming POA board work session, Jan. 5 at 9 a.m. at the Ponce de Leon Center.
Not only has the "acting" general manager stopped curbside recycling he also stopped recycling cans for local not-for-profits benefit.
The Animal Welfare League will have to find a solution to the transportation of a phenomenal amount of aluminum cans to a vendor in Hot Springs instead of the Village recycling center on Cloaca Lane.
The transportation last year was just a matter of yards, this year it will be miles, what a waste of fossil fuels.
The AWL collects thousands of dollars each year with the can recycling program. The money goes to support the good works of the AWL.
The POA staff and board may not care about recycling or abandoned animals but the AWL does and will continue to raise funds with can collection.
The can collection site is at the Animal Shelter on Cloaca Lane.
If you have a truck and would be willing to aid in the transportation of the cans to Hot Springs please contact the AWL at 915-9337.
