Council votes to table resolution to abolish city recycling program
Summary
Resolution 159-25, a proposal to abolish London’s recycling program, was read and a motion to table it indefinitely carried unanimously. The sponsor said a report with cost comparables will be presented to the service committee before any further action.
Council read Resolution 159-25 — "A resolution to abolish the city of London rest recycling program" — by title; the measure was sponsored by Councilman Brent McDaniels.
A council member moved to table the resolution indefinitely so the service committee could review additional information and provide cost comparables. "I anticipate having a report ready to go to the service committee on the eighteenth," the sponsor said, noting new information had become available and that the service committee would be able to consider comparative costs.
The motion to table was seconded and carried on a roll-call vote. The record from the meeting shows the following votes: Councilman Greg Eads — Yes; Councilman Hayes — Yes; Councilman Hitt — Yes; Councilwoman Jackman — Yes; Councilman Brent McDaniels — Yes; Councilman Stall — Yes; Councilwoman Treanor — Yes. The resolution was therefore tabled indefinitely.
Council members and staff indicated they expect more detailed cost and operational information to arrive before the service committee meets so members can consider options and next steps.
