Botanica Green Bin Programme Information Session
Green bin use significantly reduces waste in our already taxed landfills. According to the City of Ottawa’s website, the Ontario Government is aiming at “a multi-residential waste diversion target for organics of 50% by 2025. […] The green bin program is already active, with nearly 500 multi-residential properties in Ottawa participating,” which is about 27% of all such properties. The Summershade Townhouse residents have been following the Green Bin programme for a few years. A new initiative for the Botanica mid-rise condo complex is to introduce green bins to residents and owners.
To learn how the green bin programme will function at Botanica, Kyle Brydges, a City of Ottawa waste inspector, has been invited to provide us with all the information needed to participate and why it is important to do so.
Mark this date!
There will be two information sessions on:
January 15th, at 2pm and 7pm in the Library
You can attend either the afternoon or the evening session.
