Board plans winter reconfiguration of recycling site with new signage and traffic pattern
Summary
To reduce confusion and garbage at the recycling shed during winter, the board agreed to put up double-sided 'Recycling Enter' and 'Recycling Exit' signs, consider temporary posters the first weeks, and move winter recycling across Route 7 as needed.
Leicester's Selectboard discussed a plan to move recycling operations for winter months and to improve traffic flow at the shed. The Chair proposed clear, double-sided signage that reads 'recycling enter' and 'recycling exit' and suggested a shed-side notice explaining the winter location. Members agreed temporary posters should be used for the first few weeks to get drivers accustomed to the change.
The board also raised concerns about people leaving household garbage at the recycling site and discussed ways to minimize litter, including larger signs and possibly hiring someone to oversee the site during peak times. Julie will look into sign sources and prepare options for the board to approve. "Let's see what I can come up with," the Chair said when asked to explore signage options.
